first sighting of the mountains

Today I saw the mountains for the first time. We could always see the hills that surround the Kathmandu Valley, and that's what I've been seeing for the last two weeks. But today, after a lot of rain yesterday put down the haze of pollution, and the skies cleared, I saw the Himalayas beyond the hills. You can't take it all in, even all the way back here in Kathmandu - they reach so wide, that you find yourself just panning left and right, trying to see them all. They were amazing - will post pictures of them soon.
