Junior, the neighbour dog that has been adopted by the team is now probably the only dog in our little town sporting a pink leather collar. Dog here are of course never on a leash but I must admit he looked kind of snazzy this morning, coming with me and J on our morning walk. Morning for us that is, being out by 7 am. Morning nepali style is more like getting up when the sun gets up, around halv 5 or 5. This is also the time when people gather to play football. And the army and police also do their morning run through town then. At 5?!
The other morning at 0715 we received a phone call from two members from a partner organization, asking if they could come over for a tea and a chat. We were all sleeping then and there was no use explaining our decadent western habits either. In the end they came over at 0830 when we all dragged ourselves out of bed, maybe(probably)wondering why we still looked so tired.
Our neighbors have a young boy from the Madeshi community working for them(which is very common and hard to get use to. Children working than is, but that is life here). Part of his job is to collect flowers, usually this time of year big red ones,for the morning puja(ritual)and this is how I usually wake up. Hearing him in the garden at sunrise. So different from back home.
