Just a few more mtn pics and leaving homestay

I see there have been some pretty tricky people who have found my blog, and are giving it traffic which is okay but it means I may not be able to get the real story out due to possible reading by PC people.  I mean, obviousy, I always do exactly what I should do.

Today, we finished up our training with our families and left Chautara.  I was sure my host father would not cry because he is a big figure and the local politician, but no, he produced quite a bit of waterworks.  It is always tough to watch grown people cry.  Some of the volunteers were also pretty emotional, but every managed to survive the goodbyes.  I guess goodbyes aren't as hard for me.  I liked my family a lot, but I didn't have trouble saying goodbye.  Maybe the difficulty of evacking from Mali numbed me a bit to departures.

Anyways, I don't have much to say, just some photos of the last few days and some nice Alpenglow.
