Extremely common site of women carrying basket loads of fodder and/or kindling. We quickly sorted the rooms for gyne/pediatrics, ortho, dental, general and skin, clothes and pharmacy with registration just outside of the main doors. We went to the roof for a quick cup of tea, local donut and a boiled egg for breakfast. Prepped some of the vegetables for Shudarson to cook dal bhaat for lunch and then headed back down to work.
In the group photo: anandaban staff, Elizabeth (student, American Leprosy Mission volunteer), Natalie & Isabelle (Swiss nursing student volunteers), Dr. Betty (KTM volunteer), Sylvia (Swiss nurse instructor, volunteer) with her translator Neru, health post staff and volunteers. We were very high up in the hills. If it had been a clear day, you would see a strip of gorgeous white Himalayas behind us. But clear days like that only happen maybe 60 days total out of the year! They are breathtakingly beautiful when do they happen.
