Muktinath!

Wow... we actually made it! After 10 days of walking we made it to Muktinath Temple. Here's the 4 of looking a tad cold and wet having 'washed away our sins' by sprinkling our heads with the holy water for all(!) 108 fountains inside the temple! Freezing! Blomin glad we had our 'oh so sexy' puffa(down) jackets... which is just so not me but i swear it's the most valuable item i took on the trek! The temple was of course in the perfect location on the edge of the mountain surrounded by snow - so beautiful. People of all ages and abilities would come from miles (either by foot, horseback, or donkey) to pray and wash away their sins here.
