Tod and Fiona visit Nepal for a third time, and meet up again with
their friends who live in the small, isolated village of Salle,
high up in the remote Everest Region of the country. Although this
is the third book in the series, the reader does not have to have
read the first two books in order to follow and enjoy the account
and descriptions of this visit. It is an emotional and highly
enjoyable trip, despite the presence of a massive spider and
unspecified rodent in their room, and the couple catch up with
Kalyani and her family, Molly, the village children, and Lucky the
cockerel. This time Tod and Fiona also visit the tiny country of
Bhutan, and climb up to the spectacularly beautiful Tiger's Nest
Monastery, 10,000ft up in the Himalayas. Following a nerve
jangling, rip roaring drive through part of India, they spend time
in Darjeeling, and ride on the famous Darjeeling Himalayan Railway
- the Toy Train. Then it's a twenty hour, non stop drive back
through India, across Nepal, and up into the Himalayan mountains at
night, driving through blazing forests, until they reach Kathmandu
again. A fast moving, humorous read, recommended not only for the
hardened, intrepid traveler, but for the armchair variety too. The
photos which accompany 'A Beard In Nepal 3' can be found at
