Random pics from our Dhulikhal hikes and off to our last stop Bhaktapur

Here are a few final pictures from our stay in Dhulikhal and hikes in the area. We saw quite a bit in our four days of hiking through hills, farmland and villages.  The people are friendly, interested and eager to make sure you have a great time and Prem Lama was a great guide.  He seemed to know everyone, not surprising as his family has a long history in the area and he has been guiding since he was 15.  Hiking was fairly demanding with healthy elevation changes a constant for the area.  Prem said we were in "OK" shape and could do some of the Himalaya treks but I think he was being kind. It was hard work and I was always happy when it was done and we could dive into a very large beer.
We arrived in Bhaktapur this morning, our last stop until Sunday when we leave for Hong Kong.
