Trekking Day Two

We set off through more jungle, crossing lots of streams, stopped for an early lunch where the littles were delighted to meet the sleepy cat and kittens, and Eve organised us all to take turns photographing each other. We don't have many family photos at all, so she definitely has a point....




















Mushrooms drying in the sun on the terrace of the lunchtime teahouse.








Arriving at the blue roofed village of Ghorepani. This is the lower part of the village.




Little Thom insisted on holding my finger for the first two days whilst he was riding on Den's back - this was progression from the first day when he had refused to go with Den at all, so I carried him until mid afternoon. Of course by day three Den was the best thing EVER and very funny and clever and much more interesting than me.....





This is our tea-house for night number two:




And this is the view from its front door:





Noah took this photo of the dining room and sitting room area.....





Looking down onto more bright blue roofs.



And the rather surprising site of a volley ball / basketball / footie pitch. I am still in awe that this is in a village where there are no roads, and everything is carried in by either mules or porters!

  1. WOW, it all looks so beautiful. Your photos have reignited that mountain yearning in me!
    We often talk about when would be the earliest time to go trekking with the boys. Your trip is very inspirational.
    I love the drawing of fishtail too
