Jessica's New Friends
   This is above Sangboche on the way to the 5 star lodge. You might be able to see the sun/wind burned cheeks. You can see Everest and Amadablam in the background.

   If you look carefully you can see cowpies flattened out on the stone fence to dry to be used as fuel during the winter.
Great View
  
Animals above Namche
   They were probably getting reloaded for a trek. Alot of Tibetans left there animals to graze in the hills while they were at market.

   You can also make out the yaks in front of it and a little bit of the Tibetan market.
The Tibetan Market in Namche
