Friday, 4 October 1991 – From Shivalaya to Bhandar: When we entered Bhandar, I paused to admire the small stupas alongside the main path through the village. Because we were trekking east, the afternoon sun was behind us, and – as can be seen in this photograph that Mike took of me – I’d hung a handkerchief beneath the back of my hat in order to prevent my neck from being sunburnt. |
