Happy Re-unions

We haven't given you a glimpse inside a tea house yet, so now's the time.


As our rooms were literally just a small box with 2 beds, and nothing else, the communal area you see in our picture was where we spent most of our time. Have you spotted us on the left?

As you can see, the living area was quite colourful and cosy - at least it was cosy when the stove was lit. We had our meals at these chest like tables and were quite comfortable sitting on mattresses. The family will typically sleep on these benches at night and their bedding and possessions are stored in the ceiling high cupboards.

The clever ones amongst our readers may spot that we're about to get events out of sequence as we've just showed you a picture with some of our fellow trekkers, before they'd actually arrived at the tea house in our tale.

Please excuse this. Back to the story, a lovely lunch was served up in this lounge area, as we waited for the rest of the group to arrive. Hardly had we finished and sat back outside in the sun, when we spotted the zopkis approaching with the rest of the group's luggage.


Our friends weren't far behind. It was lovely to see everyone again and also to find out there were a couple of interesting local visits to make that afternoon.

We'll tell you where we went next time.

Lots of love George & Yorkie xxx
