Steve Irwin and the King of the Mountain

Although we're near the ends of the earth up here in the foothills of the Himalayas ... still raining and still fog-bound by the way ... the neat little Internet spot opposite our hotel lets us stay in touch with home and up to date on the news.

We were both stunned by with the news of Steve Irwin's death and it made the headlines in Kulala Lumpur and over here in India as well. But reading about Peter Brock, the King of the Mountain has really floored us. Hopefully no more tragedies while we are away.

Sadly signing off from a wet and foggy Darjeeling @ 2:30pm local.
