WildFiber family outing.

Mark "WildFiber" and his kids prepare for an afternoon paddle-boat adventure. We run out of beer, though, and the villages on the other side of Phewa Lake were dry... Posted by Picasa

Tikka: It´s Baburam´s turn.

Dasain 2063 B.S. Tikka

Aah, sweet Dasain time, with swings, kites in blue skies and tikka!Like last year, and years before, this is Hindu X-mas and Easter rolled into one week of puja, tikka giving/receiving. And overeating - it´s estimated that about 75% of meat consumed by Nepalis happens this bloody week.
One change though - this is the first time since Shahi dynasty came to Kathmandu Valley, some 250 years ago, when the top politicians, from PM down, didn´t receive tikka (blessing) from HM the King! Posted by Picasa
