A few pics from Desserah/Dushain in Biratnagar, Nepal (Oct 08)


Desserah (aka Dushain) in Biratnagar. From left: Anuraj, Anusha, Jill,


Anuraj's mom, his mom's relative and Rakha (mom's househelp)



Anuraj and Anusha at one of the temporary facades that are put up during this time. It actually reminded me of a Christmas nativity -- it basically illustrates the story of Desserah.

Anusha with stray puppies. We saw these on the side of the road, petted them, received stares and comments from local passerby's and eventually took one home. Only to find massive bugs in it's ears, feet, etc. We fed it, and returned it to it's siblings (with milk and rice for them too). Anusha LOVED them and cried when we left them. How does a 1 year old know how to carry a puppy?
