Nepal!!

 

 

 

 

My goal was to reach 50 countries before I turned 50 – I made it! 

 

The men in the photo are not dressed up for tourists, they are real Sadhus (holy men).  This was taken at the Pashupatinath Temple in Nepal.

For the record, D is at 52.  He lived in the Philippines as a child and had a business trip to Saudi Arabia.  However, as of January (we are going to the Philippines), he will only be one country ahead of me.  I am pretty sure I will never make it to Saudi… so in 2014, I plan to sneak out in the middle of the night, fly to Brunei or Sri Lanka and come home before he realizes I am gone  :   )

Check back in Janaury for the Nepal post – such an AMAZING place to visit!
