Not much time--it's 10:30pm (wayyy past our bedtime. . .) but I just had to write something. We are doing well. Actually did go to the wedding in Chitwan (long bus ride, interesting customs, and did I say really long bus ride! No pictures because my camera ran out of battery just before we left. And even tho I was able to purchase batteries, they didn't work--either too old, or just the wrong kind. Who knows?) This past weekend we flew to Pochara--very nice, peaceful town with a fantastic view of the Annapurna range and beside a pretty lake. We got up early on Sunday to climb to the World Peace Pagoda and got a fantastic sunrise on the mountains--it was beautiful. But back to classes on Monday and the hectic pace of lesson planning and teaching! Tomorrow we take our grammar and phonology test, then GRADUATION!!!! We are so ready to be done--but not really ready to leave Kathmandu. Luckily we have all day Saturday to go around and say goodbye to all the wonderful people we have befriended here. Tomorrow night we are being treated by our teachers to another Nepali meal--this one is in a restaurant where there will be a lot of traditional dancing and singing. Should be fun!
We are excited to be seeing Benny and Amanda soon and look forward to lounging on the beaches of Kerala in southern India! Will write more soon--I promise.

Hey, Con-Con and Bon-Bon: Hope all is well with you. Have a great time in southern India in the sun. It's starting to snow in NYC - I'm listening to loons on the radio and thinking of northern Minnesota - it's a big grand world and it is wonderful to be an armchair traveller - following your adventure. Love - Scoots
Saw Mose yesterday and he told us you passed and are finally finished with your classes--HURRAY!! It's all fun from here on out--and I've heard nothing but wonderful things about Karola. Cold and snowy here, so I'll be wishing I could be with you on those warm, sunny beaches:)... Although, I think Steve and I are going to Phoenix to see my mom this weekend, so we should also be in the sun. Her surgery went well and she's doing much better than last time re her recovery.
