More Kathmandu – Monkey on the Wall and “Fire Eating” Meagan!

Monkey in the Window

While relaxing my Hotel room at the Marshyangdi during the afternoon on the day of our return to Kathmandu, I looked out my window to see a monkey climbing up a gutter drain on the wall of the other hotel building across the courtyard!  He apparently was attempting to catch a bird that caught his interest.  He stopped in a window directly across from my room long enough for me to get a few photos of him.  He never did catch the bird, and (apparently bored) climbed down a few minutes later and scampered away. 

Meagan About to Eat Fire?

Despite this being a day of relaxation (which was fantastic in and of itself after our exhausting trek), it turned out to be a good day for photography for me as well.  In addition to the climbing monkey photos, I got a shot of Meagan at dinner fooling around with candlelight.   It is one of my favorite shots of the trip!  Thanks, Meagan!
