_uacct = "UA-3483228-1";urchinTracker();Tihar is my favorite holiday in Nepal. It's all about singing, dancing, community and neighbors, kids, families, and having fun. It's about lighting candles, inviting prosperity into our lives, honoring animals and renewing relationships.I headed up briefly to the mountains during Tihar and got to join in on a rockin' village dance party high up in the now cooooold mountain foothills. The views of the peaks this time of year are breathtaking.I came back to town with 2 nasty blisters, a cold, and a fresh and clear mind. Plus this photo.The boy above, when he saw himself, got the hugest grin on his face. He said, "I look like an eagle"! Indeed.
