Agnes' 30th birthday during Dasain + latest news from Nepal!

Dear all,

Thanks for all your birthday messages to Agnes who had her traditional birthday with me but also a special one at Usha's. We have had some great days behind us during the national festival in Nepal: Dasain. Kids play with their kites in the streets, people sacrifice ducks, goats or buffalo to Gods to protect them from motor accidents. The blood of the killed animals is poured around scooters, cars or motorbikes for example. Anyway, check out a few pictures under Nepal. Tomorrow (Oct 17th), Agnes and I will head to the Everest national park for a long 20 days trek to be closer to the highest peak in the world (Lukla airport...here we come...Am scarred ;-)
