Our animal friends

Since our arrival in Nepal we have had plenty of animal encounters. With this group of animal-loving students any animal sighting is big news, and the responses of the people around us vary somewhere between concern, confusion, and laughter. We thought we should share some of our favorite animal pics for your viewing pleasure.

Street dogs are everywhere!  These guys are taking a little nap.
