India and Nepal



Two of the highlights from our trip to India and Nepal last month: Mount Everest and the Taj Mahal. We cheated on the Everest approach of course, as we took the small plane flight out of Kathmandu along the Himalayas to within 5 miles of the summit...unlike the much more adventurous route taken by Bev! It was magnificent anyway and will keep me going until the day we visit Everest Base Camp on the Tibetan side.  And it was so lovely to share the Taj Mahal experience with Dara. It has been almost 40 years since I was there in my backpacking days and I have always wanted to show her the most perfect building on the planet. It doesn't disappoint. If you are foolish enough to want to see more pics of the trip, I am putting them up on Pinterest and you can see them using this link; www.pinterest.com/TravelShow
