January 22, 2006

Jeffrey Carlisle of Marina del Rey snapped this photo during a trip to India and Nepal in August with his 24-year-old daughter, Liz. They spent one week of the trip hiking in the Himalayas. In one Nepalese village, he said, ÂWe came across these kids, and they werenÂt used to seeing a whole lot of tourists, so they were fascinated with us.Â
