Kathmandu - Part II

Bangkok Airport

Tired but upright in Bangkok

No guesswork here; definately not a good idea to smoke in Thailand

Bouddha Stupa from the Saturday Cafe, Kathmandu



Bouddha Stupa
Bouddha
Looking over the railing from the Saturday Cafe to the houses and shops below.

Typical street near Bouddha and the house.
Even when the sun is out the streets are wet and muddy.

Looking at the shops that are around Bouddha. We are standing on the stupa looking down.

Namgyal's mom and aunt buying vege's for the days meals.

Typical street.
The walk back from Bouddha to the house.
Thamel district near downtown Kathmandu.
Snake charmers in Thamel. Yup, real King Cobra's!
Downtown Kathmandu near the Kings Palace.
Near one of the houses the family rented.
Typical work truck. Slow drive = Long life. True, true.
OSHA need not apply here...
Namgyal's sisters school called House of Children.
View from up the street across the valley.
Insert funny title here... I call it "fire escape."
These kids made "thrones" out of bricks and cement bags.
Goat balls in a second story window. What did you expect me to say?!
Awesome sunset.

"Goat Balls In 2nd Story Window" -So abstract, bet you could get $1000 for somthing like that in a gallery. It really leaves the mind wanting more, so many unanswered questions!
Thanks for indulging us :) sis
