Awesome stuff, really interesting! I want to go climb those mountains where the suspension bridge is! I thought in one of the pics, this one freepgs.com/alexpentonyvran/nepalandthailand/slides/IMG_0524.html, that the dude was burning himself like on the cover of the first rage against the machine album. That would have messed me up, but alas.

Andre: That is me playing cricket with the young monks, it seems a couple of them got distraccted by fay taking the photo. It was with a plank of wood and a roll of vine stuff.
The funeral we went to was pretty touching, that place, pashupatinath, is where every one that lives in kathmandu gets burnt, while we were there about 3 different funerals take place, after they just get swept into the river, it is holy.

Thanks for clearing that up PV! Wow what an experience! would love to get over there maybe after this year the mountains are amazing. Those streamers from the spire of that building what are they just decoration?
On another note with your picture hosting are all these photos within the hundred meg allowance?
And Alex M are you still OS? when do you get back?

that folder with all the pics in is 25mb i think i have 200mb now. Do you mean this one? They are prayer flags, they have them in high up places where the wind blows, rumor has it each time they flap they say a prayer. They also have them at everest base camp: And on top of hills:

ROOOOOAAAAR !!! FIX POWER !!!
Man I was seriously pulling out of corners tonight. I love riding in the cold. Av speed from my place to Dickson this morning 32km/h. Max 52.
If you want to go for a ride with John, I'll give you guys each others' phone numbers. he's keen for a ride this weekend I think. maybe even a metric century saturday... you can borrow a pair of 700c wheels from me if you'd like to do a longer ride. I have 15 and 16t sprockets.
