Finally! Pictures!

Mark has set up a Flicker account so that you can see our pics. You can go here:

We'll be posting pics there as we can. You can never twll when you will have a connection or even electrcity here. The other night the lights went out when Ben and I were in the elevator. He paniced. The funny thing is he cried we would starve in the elevator and we were carrying three bananas we had just went down for. There was an emergency light but he was terrified. They rescued us within three minutes. The lights go off a lot here but the hotel has a generator. It was rough shopping yesterday with all the lights I couldn't see what I wanted to buy. Very annoying.

Nepal has not been Ben's favorite place. He keeps asking when we will go back to our world. He wants to go home desperately. Poor boy. I cna't find hardly any food he will eat except for breakfast. Nothing is like in our world Although he was thrilled to find gummy worms at the store and he tried some weird candy jell that is the rage in Asia. He loved it. Still everyday he triesto find a solution to our going home. He thinks perhaps we could take a ballooon. He says his heart hurts for his friends and he cries at least once a day over missing them. He has been a bit weepy. It is sad as I don't think he will have a good impression of Nepal and that is sad.

WEll Mark has both kids and a cold so I better go rescue him.

LOVE the photos! She has such thick, lush hair. She'll be a heartbreaker, I think.

I like the photo where she's using Mark as a reclining pillow with her hands behind her head. She just looks so...kicked back and relaxed, like "yes, I'm a princess and I know it." tee hee The leopard print outfit is adorable on her.

WOW!!! The pictures are super. There so...REAL. Thanks for the connection. Hoping Mark disposes of his cold very quickly and does not share with anyone!
What an adventure in the elevator! Quick thinking on Mom's part--don't panic. We have banana's! - that's a great line I have to use myself someday.

Poor Ben! Yes, we were all weepy after 3 weeks in Nepal, too. Kyra was a trooper, but it was hard for her as well. And he's getting so big! He barely fits in his jacket. He is obviously the tall boy: Ethan still fits in his same jacket in the 3T.

Great pictures! You do have gorgeous children, don't you?!
