3 monks on holiday from their monastery
They told me they came from McLoed Gange where they are allowed 2 months holiday a year. Today I was driven out in a car belonging to a young man that I sponsored years ago to come to uk to finish his hospitality courses. He doubled up his courses and took English and within a year was head wine wine waiter at the Hilton as well! He progressed to eventually owning his own restaurant, has built two houses here and sent his children to English medium school in Kathmandhu - the eldest won a scholarship to Kings College London and is just finishing his degree in bio-physics but now will go on to do law...Unfortunately T's courses in England coincided with the assassination of the whole Royal Family here so it meant he couldn't come back to work for all the 4 and 5* hotels closed for several years for lack of tourists. But now he is back and hoping to become a local politician for his village area for he hopes his experience will enable him to raise standards. In the village they still have had no help to build their homes and the school yet - nearly 3 years after the earthquake.
Anyway, enough of that I spent the day watching people and this is my swan song - thank you for looking, commenting, encouraging and giving stars and hearts - you are wonderful. Here are lots and lots of pics from the day
