WE SPENT JANUARY 1 IN THAMEL, KATHMANDU, NEPAL! IT WAS A NIPPY 38 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT EARLY IN THE MORNING AND 63 DEGREES BY 4 PM. I ALSO ENJOYED MY DAILY EARLY MORNING CUP OF TEA.

THIS IS A GREAT SPOT IF YOU LIKE PORTUGUESE PERI-PERI CHICKEN COOKED BY THIS SOUTH AFRICAN CHAIN RESTAURANT. IT IS MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT!  Here is the menu in the UK: http://www.nandos.co.uk/themenu), which doesn’t differ much from the one I love in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

WE WENT TO OUR HOUSEHELPER’S BIHARI CAMP FOR THIS CELEBRATION.  BIHARIS ARE KNOWN AS GOOD COOKS!

With the new uploading method I haven’t figured out how to post for later dates, so I will post enough photos for the rest of the year for my 366 days posts! Hope to spend some vacation in Nepal from Friday until after the New Year!

This photo was taken at our fellow footballer friend, Rubel’s wedding celebration.

Nazmul, Marland, and Rabi!

I ACTUALLY CAUGHT THEM BOTH WITH EITHER A SMILE OR A SMALL GRIN.  IT’S HARD TO CATCH THE BENGALI BRIDE AND GROOM WITH A SMILE!
