Some shopping & Dinner at Garden Cafe

After the glide we checked into a new guest house belonging to the Tibetan Community near Garden Cafe. 
We freshened up and went for a bite and some shopping to the main market.

Some tribal necklaces in semi precious stones and brass that I really liked but could not buy as they were expensive

Some shopping wearing the traditional Khampa cap and  spinning the prayer wheel.
 The prayer wheel is also called Mani or Mani wheel. It is believed that spinning the prayer wheel helps one accumulate wisdom & good karma and wipe away bad karma.

Hiten with the prayer wheel wearing the traditional Khampa hat
I bought some more prayer flags - this time the bigger ones with Buddha mantras for my hostel room and a tiny little mobile hanging with a prayer wheel. Its on my phone already:)

Sahil (Khoonkhar prani) smile karo, photo accha aaega.... chalo chalo smile karo :-p

There it is! Yesss... and he burst out laughing :-p
Since we had already spent about 2500/- rupees each for paragliding today we decided to have a not-so-expensive meal tonight :-p
We weren't too hungry so we ordered just one Margarita Pizza and 2 coffee. We thought we could eat the bread, jam, chocolates, namkeen and peanuts we have at our hotel if hunger strikes later :)
