Shopping, shopping, shopping


Alison and Emma improving their karma


Tibetan hair extensions - yes, really


Emma at a shiny, sparkly shop


Very quick post - only 15 mins of electric left! Went into Thamel with Emma today and shopped till we dropped - spent quite a long time in the old town, down an alleyway with lots of 'shiny, sparkly shops' (bindis and bracelets!). I got blessed by a holy man and now have a big red blob on my head; someone touched Alison and then crossed themselves (is she really a Goddess?); we improved our karma by spinning prayer wheels in a temple; we wandered down 'dentist alley' - euw - and spent ages just looking at the general chaos - great fun.

Run out of time to post more photos - will try again tomorrow with the rest.
