Trekking Through the Himalayas

We did a small trek one day through the luscious jungle (as they call it) not far from where we were staying. I think we agreed we would love to come back when we have more time and try something a bit more ambitious, of course when I am in better shape!


At the gate to the park we were hiking into.




A view of the Kathmandu valley.


We were almost above the clouds. This is a picture of the Tibetan Buddhist Monastery we saw.


Supposedly the monks were happy to have us come see their monastery. They even let me take pictures when I asked :)


Our guide showing Jason around the monastery. This is the main place where the monks study.


Outside of their place of study.


Buddhist priests taking a break after having lunch.


I saw these people picking up rocks all day and I couldn't resist. Mason I know picking up rocks is your favorite thing! Wouldn't you love to do that for a job?


Our guide, Raz! This was on the way down, and I was a bit exhausted!
