After the car troubles had been temporarily resolved - i.e., we had a substitute car for the time being - this was the first opportunity to reach further away destinations. I chose Prarayer since it looked we could get high up by car. When we arrived, Sunday morning, it turned out that this destination was rather crowded at the end of the road (at the beginning of the artificial lake). We had to walk all the way along the lake before I got the opportunity to get somewhat higher up the mountains. Though not an ideal situation, I found some typical alpine flowers and butterflies, so I was happy to be 'back in business,' so to speak. |
