Retreat in the Heart of Darjeeling

Tibetan prayer flags would fit right in!

imageThe mountain tops here remind me very much of Tibet. It was rather hazy today so I didn’t take too many pictures. I’ll save up for tomorrow.

Here’s a school built  in the 30s. The architecture makes me think the buildings in  Darjeeling.

Looking forward to more tomorrow!

    I love to see the work of master stonemasons! I saw the supreme example in Cuzco, Peru in ’73.

      Yes, I was reflecting on how people build out of the local materials all over the world and do an amazing job!
