Chakkar

After last night's rain, this morning was clear enough to show the Dun and the Siwaliks beyond. SF and I walked up to the chakkar (road going around the 3 crests at the top of the hill). The snows were not visible, but we could see the Nag Tibba range. Much to S's delight we saw a lot of both rhesus and langour monkeys. We stopped at Prakash's store and bought a few things, and then went on to Rokeby's for lunch.

A few more classmates have arrived so we had a nice visit and dinner together.

The picture is of what we called a Bible fern ... usually one of the first kinds to dry up at the end of the monsoons.
