The Bridges, The Bridges, The Bridges







Thank you Judy and Peggy for your bridge report. Fortunately our group did not know about the collapse as we carefully crossed one after another. I can certainly speculate as to which one gave way. It could have been the one I named "the prayer bridge," two steps and a prayer, or the bamboo baby bridge being held together by a wing and a prayer (it was desperately in need of new prayer flags) or maybe the "casino boardwalk bridge" which was a crap shoot since it was missing two our of three boards wherever we stepped. I'm glad you were thinking of me.

Fortunatley, the only injury I sustained (a pulled muscle) occured in the toilet tent while trying to take a crap Sherpa style. For more detail, call me when I return home; I'll wait by the phone.

Rosie,
Your pictures do convey a thousand
words... w o w !!
Now about those bridges: the one
that fell was being rushed by many
on their way to an open-air market;
yes, it was the equivalent of our
flea markets -- so be forwarned!
And about the latrines, you are an
experienced scout, surely you know
the routine by now. So I can't wait
for your excuse :)
Continue to breath in all of it,
and don't exhale to you get home.
love you,
Judy
