Tihar Ceremony

We had a wonderful day with our Nepali family of Jagat, Mann & Kamal etc. etc. they made us part of the tikar ceremony and I am sitting writing this with three tikars on my forehead and two lovely marigold malas around my neck. It really was a lovely day and we took two Australian girls along too. We met them coming from the airport and they were happy to take part in Nepali culture something as tourists they would not otherwise have been able to do.
They now want to meet and sponsor a child.
Tomorrow morning we leave for Pokhara where I will meet with the Rotary Club and then trek to Chimkhola.

I read your post with great interest. I have found a humanitarian company that allows me to sponsor a child in that area just by purchasing toxin free personal care products. It feels great. I would love to visit my little boy someday!
