Orchard Hut


Orchard Hut is a nice secluded spot for trekkers and other tourists. It takes a lot of effort to get there, there are no direct roads or paths.

It's run by Mr. Dhami and his family as a business. The food was really good, the accomodations were very basic but nice. It felt like being at a very basic cottage...the were no showers so you had to bathe using a bucket. They had a neat little water heater that used a wood fire. They also had a little pool that a few of us decided to jump into at differnt times...really cold!!! Couldn't stay in it for more than a minute.

A palmist came in and read the palms of most of the people in the group. It was an emotional experience for some people, for me it was more of a learning experience. He told me about the basic areas of the palm and what the represent. The way the lines and wrinkles are located and their lengths tell you about the person. It seemed pretty neat and he was spot on about some of my past and personality traits...apperently the thumb can tell you a lot about the person it's attached to.

Other than that, it was a really nice place to sit and relax for three days.
