There was another short hike scheduled for us.  Our destination was the Chorten on the hill to the left of this picture.

A road crew getting ready to lay the tar. 

It had turned into a lovely afternoon and at the beginning of the trail Barbara and Raine staged a revolt.  They just wanted to sit under a tree and enjoy the sunshine.  They assured Bhim that I would go with him. 

We  crossed a suspension bridge and walked through beautiful terraced rice fields before we began the moderate climb up through the pine trees to the Khamsum Yuelley Namgyei Chorten.

It took about an hour.
