Week-end in Paro: Tiger's Nest, Uma & National museum

Enjoying a break at the halfway point up to Tiger's Nest

Robin with Caroline on her back and Gyem, our driver.
At the half way Tahksang cafeteria. Catherine didn't want to be in the photo.
You can barely see Tiger's Nest in top right of photo.


Dave got to carry Catherine up the mountain, all 15 kg of her!



I don't know why Caroline was tired...she was being carried all the way up and down.
Notice her precious hands crossed.




On the way down: Catherine walked the whole way!


Nearing the half way mark, a quick pit-stop to turn the prayer wheel.
Notice Tiger's Nest in the background.


Posing at the National Museum-our budding photographer, Catherine, took this shot. The Paro valley is in the background.


Our room at the Uma Paro-absolutely fabulous accomodations and amazing food!

Catherine and Dad enjoying the large living room in our suite.

Dave, Caroline and Catherine pose in front of the largest book in the world!


Our wonderfully warm bathroom-everything was heated including the towel racks!

Catherine and Caroline enjoy a care package from Grandma Kathy and Jerry. Robin is talkin to Grandpa Coach on Skype.

Caroline is helping to clean up.
Notice the tiger slippers, a gift from good friend Henry, now back in Boston.

Catherine and Caroline play with the markers that were in Christmas care package from Valpo.
