The Trek was the Big Thing on our trip. It's customary to do a trek while in Bhutan and we had reduced it to two nights. I'd realized on our hike the day before that my dance-injured left foot wouldn't handle the two days of six-hour hiking, so Steph and Tashi set off with the trekking crew to explore the Panakha Valley without me slowing them down.
I was driven to the camping site the following day (Steph's brilliant idea) and we had a wonderful time sleeping over in the elegantly appointed tent and enjoying the rural country side. It was especially nice to have a chef-catered dinner by the person who usually cooks for one of the royal family.
Breakfast served to us by royal family chef.
Two stray dogs decided they would guard us outside our tent all night. Here they are happily hanging out with us in the morning.
I met two rural country girls that live on the crest of a Himalayan mountain. They were so curious about us, they couldn't stop staring.....where they learned the peace symbol, I'll never know.
This is the house these two girls live in. An amazing landscape!
