Sorry for the delay in posting, been trekking, and a few other minor adventures (think medical treatment), but I'm alive and in Pokara for a few days relaxation. I'll post more when I get back to Kathmandu. They only have dial up here and its ALOT more expensive than in the City. Flight here was nice, still no mountains. Seems that the haze covers the coutry. I've met the people in the new program to Nepal, there are 15 if them. I'll be giving a talk on Cultural Intergration from a Westerns Perspective. Life is good and, thankfully, I'm alive.
