Traditional Bhutanese dress at the Paro Sunday Market. We got out of Thimpu this weekend and hiked up 900m from the Paro Valley to the Tiger's Nest. According to the resident monks the lama who built the monastery flew up there on the wings of a winged Tigress. I think that 400 years ago it would have been extremely difficult to haul concrete and huge beams up this cliff so I tend to agree with the monks. It was a fabulous hike to a spectacular monastery. Natalie was accompanied by a Bhutanese friend and they were not effected by the altitude. I wish I could say the same for BA and I.
