Namaste, I am writing this from Delhi. Sean and I are feeling better after a couple of bouts with some fierce stomach bugs. Delhi is massive and more modern than other parts of India we have seen. I am including pictures from Varanasi. This was the first place we went in India. It is a very holy place for Hindus. They come to bathe, wash clothes and cremate the dead in the Ganges. The Ganges is said to be the mother of life in India. We took a boat on the river at daybreak to see it all up close. The [View Full Entry]

Hello....Namaste.....We are now on in our 5th day here in Varanasi. India is hot and crowded. It is definitely going to take some time to adjust. We are excitedly mapping out our trip. We should make it to the Taj Mahal in Agra this week. Then we will go on to Dehli. Here are pictures from the trip before we got to India. These 12 took an hour and a half so you can see the hundreds when we get back.We love all of you! [View Full Entry]

Hello everyone, We are back in Kathmandu after an incredible hike and a little relaxation. We did the trek in 17 days. The Annapurna range has some of the heighest peaks in the world. Thorong La is the heighest pass in the world and we crossed it. It is 5416 m above sea level. We thought that the trek would be easy and that we were in pretty good shape for hiking. We were wrong. It rained for 13 of the 17 days. The only time it stopped was when we were above the rain clouds. We walked through landslides, saw [View Full Entry]

We are going trekking Asia » Nepal » Annapurna

We are planning on going on a trek tommorow that will last 22 days. It is called the Annapurna circuit. There are inns to stay at everynght of the trek, but we will not be able to contact you while we are in the mountains, so remember no news is good news. We have done a lot of research and have registered with our embassy here. It is the end of the [View Full Entry]

Hello everyone, I am sorry that there has been a delay in information. The problem is 2 parted. The first is that this site has been down and we were not able to get on here. The second is that we have been making our way East. We are finally in Kathmandu, after making stops in Istanbul and Dubai. Istanbul is a beautiful dreamlike place. I will publish pictures when it seems like an option. The computers in internet cafes in Nepal seem to be quite slow. Dubai was oppressively hot and flourishing with commercialism. The contrast between the UAE and [View Full Entry]
