Summer has well and truely arrived here in Pokhara and the temperatures are starting to get a bit uncomfortable. The seasons here are marked by the fruit that is available and one of the most eagerly awaited events in the morris household came a couple of weeks ago - the start of mango season. They are expensive and not very tasty to start with, but they soon become dirt cheap and very tasty and are served with almost every meal! Watermelons are also brought up from India and are one of Evie's favorites.
It was great to have Dave and Susie Kretchmer to stay last week as they take a month off from their work in South India to do some travelling. We had hoped to go trekking with them, but Bod is starting to make his presence felt and we decided to have a relaxing weekend instead.
Elle and Evie have both been a bit unwell recently, but right now we are all well and happy. Evie's potty training is making progress, but still a bit sporadic. She is learning to count, but struggling the confusion of two languages at once.... 1 to 5 usually goes something like this: one, dui (Nepali for 2), twee, four, nine. She also loves singing, with her favorite song being a mixture of Baa baa black sheep, twinkle twinkle little star and Aajaako din (this is the day that the lord has made in Nepali).
