6 am cow
So there was some type of funeral ritual that has been going on for the last two weeks at my apartment. Today was the last day and they put a cow in the doorway at 6:00 am on my only day off of the week and it was super loud and wouldnt shut up all morning. suffice it to say neither Will nor I got to sleep in

The walk home from Culte
Our two "guides" leading the way
Taking a break 1/4 of the way up the hill
Walking through the rice fields
Some young girls playing with a jump rope at the top of the hill

Culte!
Will and I got tricked into going on a "2-3" hour walk to Culte to do some malaria testing and prevention training.
After a 4 hour trek almost entirely uphill we made it to the health post in Culte. Will was very excited.
The fields of Culte
Me from the top of the hill. this was a little over 3 hours into the hike. I'm not sure if you can see but Dhading is in the background at the very bottom
The two public health workers from Dhading Hospital that were our guides to Culte. (They didn't know the way there any more than Will and I did)
Two young goats outside a house on our way out of Dhading. Probably each less than a month old.

Henna
This month in Nepal is a special festival where all of the girls where green bracelets and put henna on their hands. I let one of the girls do my arm.

One of the girls finished hands
Saraswati's hand being hennaed by Sarita. Sarita was married at 17 in an arranged marriage to a 25 year old. She is 18 now.

Kids and chickens
He is 7
Cute kid, he is is in lab every day all day with his brother because its summer vacation. He speaks english pretty well
The girl below on the right is named Goma and I apparently offended her because I touched her book with my shoe. I had no idea until one of her friends told me about a week later that she was still mad at me. So Will suggested that I buy her a chicken to make it up to her. Will and I joked that by buying a chicken for her and her family I may accidentally be proposing and when I handed her the chicken Goma said, "I will not madding you," which to both Will and I sounded like "I will not marry you." Anyway Will and I had a good laugh. the chicken worked and Will and I were invited for dinner.
Goma and her younger bother and sister at their book shop in Saran Bazar
