Now is the youngest member's turn
Guided closely by seniors
Ok! I found my footing
Put your left foot over here


Gently... lower yourself

Second vertical drop

It's easier than the first vertical drop

Scenic trail...
Beautiful mossy forest

The Trekkers

Got you...

Nepal Chitwan & Kathmandu 24-28 Dec 2006





After the hectic return from the Jomsom Trek (http://happyotrekker.blogspot.com/2010/05/nepal-jomson-trek-pt-3-21-23122006.html), we headed towards the Chitwan National Park, which was granted the status of a World Heritage Site in 1984, to relax and thereafter to Kathmandu for sightseeing and shopping. The December month was definitely not the right season to visit the Park for the animals were hibernating and the forest in the state of debilitation from the cold weather.

Woke up earlier on 12 November 2006 to check the weather for a morning trek and noted dark clouds and orange rays. I quickly took my camera and snap the November sky. The grey clouds slowly gave way to the golden sun rays from 6.50 a.m. to 6.54 a.m.
