Grandpa fascinated by R's iphone

Raphael helping with the harvest ;-D

The grandma reminded me of my own Grandma Marion - tough and witty and so sweet

A beautiful family with whom we spent an afternoon in a village outside Chitwan. It was rice harvesting time.

Buffalos being taken home in the evening (Chitwan)

This is were we came before Pokhara. Was a very touristy (package tour type) place, over priced and commercial but boy was it wonderful to be so close to elephants

Last moments in India before the Nepalese border

Finally getting around to upload some images. Mom: doesn't this photo remind you of Grandma's picture of the goat herd that's hanging on my wall? :)

We're back from a trek to Panchasse, a tiny village overlooking the whole Anapurna chain, was too beautiful for words... Didn't want to leave... It was probably the most beautiful place I have ever been in my life. So powerful, so peaceful, I kept thinking "THIS is why we went on this trip...". But we had to come back now to Pokhara, we're taking the night bus to the Indian border tomorrow and will meet the Lama from Bhutan in Siliguri on the 12th - he'll bring the final papers and then we go to Bhutan!
