Pokhora Relax Day 2

We slept in a bit and went for a latte and a Lassi ( fresh banana and yoghurt thick smoothie, so yummy😋 & avocado toast). Then we walked down the main strip to find the massage location. We had the Trekkers Massage😀👌 It was awesome and our calves are thanking us. We walked back and showered and headed to Devi's Falls and the Helping Hands scarf/blanket factory to tour and pick out some of the scarves ICO is selling back home. The Falls were cool and across the street was the cave where the falls disappear . It was pretty unexpected that it was discovered in the 90's. We saw a cow with its tika on the forehead. On we went to the Helping Hands Factory to tour their facility and learn more about their products. They train the disabled ( deaf, mute, not able to use a limb, in a wheelchair)or single women from husband's death or divorce. Once trained they may go back to their village with new skills to make an income. They make the products and send them to Helping Hands to sell for them. As we started the tour they asked if we wanted the tika. They gave us flowers in our hair and an apple & banana. Those that wanted tried the loom. It was tricky pulling the wood piece across but once you got the rhythm it was good. They make beautiful products. It was such an honor to see the factory.Read more
