Nigle Tufnel Day


I just skyped with Derek this morning.  Great stuff.  Then about 10 minutes after saying goodbye I was hiking with Tim down to Rajpur for a Hostel weekly meeting.  Just to stir things up a bit, we went to this excellent Tibetan restaurant named after the Tibet's capitol, Lahsa.  The hike was great.  Food was great.  

Yesterday, I found a place to purchase some bold, whole bean coffee in the bazaar.  I guess it comes from Chenni, all non-instant coffee here seems to come from South India.  This part of India seems sooo far away from Mussoorrie - so I did a small celebration the first I was able to try these beans.  I was off last night, so after yoga a friend and I went up to Char Du Khan for dinner.  We finished off the night by going back to his place at Mt. Hermon to try some of the new coffee with some homemade brownies (with homemade caramel on top).  

Yeah, great stuff!  Life's good.  Coming home in a month and a few days, really excited.

Oh, and since its 11/11/11 - it is Nigel Tufnel Day Day (Umm, yeah.  FYI - that is an international holiday) 
So rock on and rock LOUD!
