Reading over what I’ve written as I prepare for my next entry reminds me how much of the process happens in tiny, almost unnoticed steps. For instance, we have changed where we are staying in Darjeeling as we stumbled across a place in the countryside that looked great. A recommendation from a fellow Fodorite sealed the deal – Glenburn it is!

The Elgin properties in Sikkim are still our first choices, including The Elgin at Norkill and The Elgin at Pelling.

Alternative options we looked at were the Bamboo Resort in Rumtek and Yangsum Farm near Richenpong.

We also considered other stops, such as Kalimpong and considered staying in Darjeeling at The Elgin or The Windermere as well as outside of Darjeeling.
