After the last class, I received a WhatsApp message from the
program inviting me to a dinner hosted by Bobby Sager and his family. Bobby is the primary benefactor of the
Science for Monks and Nuns program and in fact, the science center here is
named after him. Everyone was invited including all 36 nuns.
The restaurant chosen for dinner was at the Chonor House
Hotel in McLeod Ganj. McLeod Ganj is
about 2 kilometers up a steep hill from where everyone has been staying. Most of the nuns were going to walk to the
restaurant and I decided to join them.
The walk (really a hike) took us on up the hill on a trail
through the forest.
We took the forest
trail instead of the road because it was safer, without cars and motorcycles to
avoid. The trail ends on the pathway around the main temple in McLeod Ganj. It was nice to get some exercise after being in class for several days.
Eventually we all made it and enjoyed a nice dinner of rice,
noodles, cake and best of all momos.
