Homesick in Tajs

Had a bit of a disasterous evening after a good day. Today we travelled on an amazing mountain road over 10000 feet. It's funny to think of having driven over three times the height of Ben Nevis. Some of the villages we saw were amazing as they clung to the mountainside with their terrace housing. After this amazing journey we reacted badly to our otherwise reliable drivers losing the hotel.
It turned out to have been the victim of a recent flash flood which had wrecked the street outside, turning into what seemed like a mud bath although was probably worse.
The hotel made us feel unwelcome and made me feel homesick for the first time. To bed then and with text messaging out... Good night and dreams of Mytholmroyd.
