Beautiful Nepal!

We are back in Kolkata after a grand adventure in Nepal!! I don't have time to write much, but here are a few pictures from our two weeks that we spent in the most beautiful country! After about 48 hours on a bus and train, we made it back into kolkata this morning and were soo glad to get off of the train!

Nepal is really probably the most beautiful place in the world! My two favorite things we did were elephant riding and bungy jumping. We had the cutest/biggest elephant I've ever seen... his name was Mootie and he took us all over the jungle in Chitwan N.P. Mootie was really the biggest elephant I've ever seen... and after our jungle safari, Tharu Kahn(his driver) took off Mootie's basket and let us ride all over the village on him bareback. Then we went to the river for the "elephant bath" that really just ended up being us swimming with this huge, sweet elephant for about 30 minutes. I'm not sure I could ever explain how much fun this was... I'm trying to figure out how I can get my own elephant now!! Our last day in Nepal we rode a bus to the border of Tibet and went bungy jumping!! They have one of the highest freefall bungy jumps in the world... it was sooo scary but so much fun!! We don't have any good pictures of us jumping, but we have the DVD to prove that we actually did it! The mountains were incredible and there was a big river beneath the bridge.. it's definitely something I will never forget!!

We have a little less than a month left of our time in India... I can't believe it! I am excited because the end is usually the best, but it also always seems to be the fastest! I'm already starting to dream of sweet tea and mexican food... I guess that will make coming home a little easier!!
