Nepal Trip 2007: Day 17: Mani Rimdu in Tengboche 28 October 2007 8:08 am

Posted by Tracy in : nepal, travel , trackback

I am thinking that the Mani Rimdu festival, a Sherpa Buddhist celebration involving masked dances and other theatrics, may be my Halloween for this year. But I’m still thinking of doing Thanksgiving in costume, just to make up for not dressing up in the usual awesome way. Anyway. Today is the day the famous masked dances are being held this year, and that’s all I’m going to say about that. Picture me taking notes furiously, till my hand cramps up with the effort.

This post was written and scheduled for automagical posting in the week before I left on this crazy adventure. I hope to write many more posts about the trip — you know, with more actual details and pictures and stuff — but for now this is all we’ve got while my intergoogle access is all kinds of sporadic during my travels from October 9 until November 6.
