| The town where we headed up to Riepe Village. Riepe was developed and is fostered by a wonderful British guy I met in Pokhara, Tony Jones. We met at the small hotel that Tony's wife runs, a throw back to the 1940, with a wonderful garden that Gomia tends and the best food I found in Nepal. Riepe is most of a days ride outside of Pokhara and then straight up into the mountains. |
 |
| Being welcomed in the village. |
 |
| The stone work here is excellent. |
 |
| The walls and stairs were so well done. |
 |
| This kind little guy followed me around, he was fascinated with my camera and his photo. |
 |
| Tony is on the right. We became fast friends and spent a lot of time talking about world politics and history among other things. He is a wonderful man who laughs easily and tells engaging stories about his nearly endless world travels and the building of a world wide travel business. Tony and his wife Gomia were easily one the best parts of being in Nepal. |

 |
| Entrance to a guest room. |
 |
| Wonderful stone pathways. |
 |
| We never got to see the snow capped mountains while we were here. The clouds never lifted more than this |
 |
| Gomia, on the right, is Tony's wife. She took wonderful care of me in Pokhara. She is a lovely women, kind and generous and like Tony she likes to laugh. |
 |
| This is where I stayed the night. |
 |
| Rice fields. |
