Trongsa in Pictures

Spontaneous plans for a weekend in Trongsa came together on Friday afternoon - and it couldn't have turned out more perfectly. Friends, food, sun, amazing views - we always enjoy a little get-away over the Yotung-la. I wasn't going to write a blog except that I took so many photos that I wanted to share - so here is Trongsa in pictures...

Unfortunately the museum was closed, but walking around the building is still spectacular.

 Trongsa Museum

Lawn-mowing, Bhutanese style

I love the beautiful curves of this building made up of circular rooms.

The perfume of these guavas was amazing

Not sure what this is - fruit or veg??

Stocking up on groceries here - the store is full-to-the brim inside!

 Shoes fixed in 5 minutes for 50c. Bargain!

Home-sweet home again to begin the month of October. With only about five teaching weeks remaining, our days are precious and numbered in Bhutan. Soon these photos will be our memories of the favourite places we love. You can never have too many photos!!!
