Me Man, Her Jane (Kate).... I ride on big bike... it go no fast...
Sunset in Pokhara.. Kate hates her hair in this one! I think it's OK.
Chris, Emiko, Kate and I play crazy games, while everyone else is either praying or meditating because this is where Buddha was born... we violate their ways...
The Peace Pagoda in Lumbini, the Japanese boys did well
Pigeon shit comes from the birds living above.... and no shoes are allowed inside!
Rickshaw and passing traffic, you can see a polka-dot cow on the left
Electric shock hair with the Himalayas standing erect
The room was haunted, scary night images... I shat my pants...
Kate and big mountain range, what a sight to behold.....
Die monkey vermin-washing-theives, die!!!!
Taj was nice
Kate just chilling, proping up a pillar in a Khajuraho temple
'Cleaning' clothes in dirty Ganga River water....
Emiko attacks us from behind, while we are fleeing from Varanasi...
I look like filth, living in filth.... oh for a home cooked meal!
Groovy reflection of road outside Calcutta's Victoria Memorial
The Memorial itself, I've mastered the digital camera!
UPDATE:
We are now in Bangkok. It's a crazy mad place which I love and hate. The heat is making us sweat constently and the prices are too high for us to splash out like the thousand other tourists we watch drinking and eating all down Koasan Road.
We've gone wild and ordered tailor-made suits, skirt (for Kate!) and top for our currently light wardrobe. Included is a dark brown corderoy suit jacket and pants for me! Oh my!
We have been waiting for our visas for Cambodia, Vietnam and China. This will speed up our time at the border and be a whole lot cheaper. So we'll pick them up in a few days, then we'll be on a bus off to the Thai/Cambodia border where the bus continues to Siem Riep for some Angkor Wat viewing pleasure.
