Post-Christmas Cheer

Heidi and I enjoyed a wonderful Christmas day with friends. It included lots of good food, quality time with friends' parents and a stirring rendition of "12 Days of Christmas". After Christmas, we headed to Pokhara for some vacation time. On the bus ride back, we decided to pen a "Nepali 12 Days of Christmas". Here it is for your reading and singing pleasure:

On the 12th day of Christmas, Nepal gave to me...

12 monks a' chanting

11 loads a' shedding

10 sadhus smoking

9 women spitting

8 yaks a' yakking

7 days of striking

6 hairy hippies

5 M-A-N-G-Y D-O-G-S

4 crowded buses

3 dudh chiyas

2 bloody expats

And a yeti in a tree!
