Will do. I think i might have to postpone my tour through the US to be sure to have enough for South America, But a trip south for sure before reaching Mexico! And maybe touch the Canadian border. Loved to share some stories and beer.

Here is the finale round from Nepal or India "lite" as some people refer to it as. These pic's are from in and around Kathmandu and Pokhara. Off to catch my return trip to Thailand good thing the mini civil war is over so i can leave my RPG's at home. Brief stop there for a few days to get my camera cleaned and then off to the land of the rising sun, Japan.

Konichiwa pregnant doges

Pashupatinath, site of outdoor cremation. They don't look like bodies, but that's usually all they burn here

Butter lamp offerings, the illumination of wisdom




Boudhanath, the holiest site in Nepal and a mecca for Tibetan monks

Swayambhunath or better known as monkey temple. But you can find the monkeys in the trash piles surrounding the temple


The all-seeing eyes of Buddha, He sees you when you're sleeping, He knows when you're awake, He knows if you've been bad or good, So be good for goodness sake! ...oh wait...


Kathmandu Valley, the second most polluted city in the world next to Mexico City


Nepal traffic jam 1

Notice the guy pulling bike backwards to help out. But he parked his bike in the middle before helping out!
Nepal traffic jam 2

Same corner as traffic jam


Ganesh, Hindu and Buddhism are mixed around here. Most practice both


No matter where you go in the world, a pedal cab is waiting


Dubar Square, the old kingdom of Kathmandu


Decoration on the Kumari house designed to keep out evil spirits. Kumari is actually an interesting story of how a pre-pubescent girl is chosen and worshiped as a living goddess. More here


More at the Kumari house


Durbar


Typical street
