Top of the World: photos from Nepal
I imagine that deer is going to be ceremoniously decapitated with one blow of a Kukri. The Ghurkha regiment I was attached to in Borneo had a ceremony where the RSM lopped the head off a calf with a BIG kukri.
Then they cooked and eat it.

Namaste
The picture post in 5081 is of a baby cow being taken for a Hindu blessing. It will not be killed, at least not by Hindus as the cow is sacred. Traditionally both Buddhist and Hindu are vegetarians.
Glad to see you back Capt VF, thank you for your unique postings. It is sad that some is is still deleting so many of yours and others posts from here?

Hey Fareastdriver..........like Rotorbabe said. The Kukri is more a fighting weapon, though I've used it a few times to pop the top of a few cold cleansers

Dam Questions
G'Day Steve! Some of your recent photographs depict what I interpret to be dammed rivers. The lakes behind the dams appear rather narrow but extremely deep - immense volumes of water are stored. Several feature a number of houses and larger buildings (entire villages?) immediately downstream of those occluded rivers. Is this a common feature in Nepal and Tibet? (I'm thinking artificial lake + earthquake = flooding disaster.) Keep posting your great shots of massive mountains of rock, delectable mounds of food, and lovely ladies, Sir! We all appreciate your considerable and artistic efforts...
