En route back to the west. On our 2 day drive back to Paro, a distance of about 200 miles, we counted
152 mechanical diggers / Small roadside restaurant where we stopped for lunch
Near Wangdue we stayed overnight at a riverside lodge. Sheila on our balcony before breakfast /
We visited Karma's house in Thimphu again for lunch. Sad farewell to Passang & Sonam
On our way into Paro, we had to wait whilst a plane landed at the airport /
Cannabis grows wild all over Bhutan, including the streets in Paro
After checking back into our Paro hotel, we went for a wander. An archery match was over
so we wandered down to Paro Dzong in the slight drizzle. Derek by the collection of chorten /
