Before we left, Page packed up some toys and candy that she wanted to give away and we were able to do that today. The kids were so excited.

Tomorrow, weather permitting, we will boat across that lake and go for a hike.

Before we left the village Page took a picture of the little boy next to her with her camera. Then more people showed up and wanted their picture taken. They older lady had never seen a photo of herself, probably others too. That was a treat to see.Screen Shot 2015-07-26 at 5.20.02 AM

And finally! I was able to get a shot of Fish Tail Mountain. Its very rare this time of year that it is visible because of the monsoon rains. It really is stunning in person, over 22,000 feet at the peak. Its sacred and cannot be climbed. Only once has it been attempted, in 1957 by an English group but they were not able to climb the last 500 feet. Since then it has been closed to climbers.
