This is our roof top terrace of the hotel we stay in. It is our refuge from the streets bellow. We eat breakfast up there some days. Fiona and I used to play up there on our last trip here.


We had momos for lunch one day. they are tibetan dumplings, deep fried. We had chicken and vegetable ones. The picture of the buildings is in Thahiti Tole, a square where we got the momos. That's the same square where we used to eat at Nima's restaurant 14 years ago.


We went to Swayambhu, which is a buddhist temple. There is a picture of it lower down, with Buddha's eyes. Another name for it is the monkey temple. It got that name because of the wild monkeys that live there. They are sacred so no know can get rid of them no matter how many lunches they've stolen.

  1. Hmm I can almost smell and taste those mo mos, and feel the breeze on the roof top. Sounds like you are having fun.
