Boots made for Walking

Mr H and I are fresh back from trekking around Annapurna (a region of the Himalayas) in the west of Nepal. It was something he'd always wanted to do, and as I've come to adopt the attitude of 'if you can't beat them, join them' (hence my constant stomping over mountains at his side) I went too. This stomp, though, was much more than a walk, it was a real adventure and I've documented some of it here for those of you who might be interested in the Himalayas, trekking, and Kathmandu.

Stop over in Delhi between London and Kathmandu - the smog was intense and there were lots of kites (huge birds) flying around the runway which made me rather nervous!


Our room in Kathmandu, complete with 'zen zone'. The view from the balcony shows how necessary a little place of tranquility is here.


Festival dancers in Patan Durbar Square

Restoration work from the 2015 earthquake is still very evident, it's a long and painstaking process. Look at the crack at the top of this building.










Monkey Temple which gave glorious views over Kathmandu valley.

Pond of peace.

Spot the little monkey who is ignoring the 'don't climb' sign.



Spice seller on the street.



Flight to Pokhara and a first view of the Annupurna range we'd be trekking in.



Fishtail Mountain is one of the highest in this range and is the pointed mountain to the left of the centre. All these mountains are only a few hundred metres off Everest's height.

A bunch of photographs from our trek...



Hotel Nirvana!

Modi River. Lovely colour due to the glacial water, so I was told.


70% of the world's butterfly species live in Nepal! I think this one is called a Bandit.

It was good walking weather, between 20-24 C most days. Cold at night though, we always had a fire to sit around in the lodges.

Bananas at altitude.


These donkeys had been taking cement up to Gandruck and were enjoying a cool drink on their way to refill their loads. All the animals we saw appeared healthy and well cared for which was great.

Stormy arrival at Gandruck, but clear the next morning.


Lunch with a view.


Locally weaved pashmina, I couldn't resist.

Prayer flags. When they become old and worn out, they're cremated. Each flag has a prayer written on it.


Phew, makes me tired just looking at this app on my phone!

Sunrise on Annapurna South.

Water mill used for grinding millet.

Trumpet flowers.



My toes enjoying a well deserved break from boots!

Thali, a dish I'd never heard of but soon came to love.

Breakfast juice will never taste the same after this.




Uninvited dinner guest in a jungle lodge!

Fire and wine, a perfect end to the day (though wine was pretty rare in the mountains!)

The road between Kathmandu and India - crazy assed road full of potholes, dodgy bridges and landslides. Seven hours on it was seven hours too many! LOL.

The Dwarika's Hotel - the perfect stop over before the long journey home.



Not sure what we'd ordered here but it was delicious (and vegetarian, which is pretty much what I stuck to the entire trip).

Taxi to the airport...!
Thanks for reading, and looking, I hope you enjoyed these snaps from Nepal. The mountains were stunning, the food delightful, the architecture breathtaking and the wildlife wonderful, but it was the people who really captured my heart. They were kind and warm and generous of spirit, we felt so welcome in their country and always safe. I really hope to visit again, it's a truly incredible place, and like nowhere else on Earth. If you're interested, we booked through this company.

Confession by Lily Harlem #erotic #romance @evernightpub

CONFESSION, a super hot short story.
When Reverend Mark encounters a beautiful woman in his new congregation, he can’t begin to imagine what secrets and desires will be revealed when the church falls silent. Because Clara is no ordinary member of the flock. She’s temptation personified, sin wrapped up in pleasure. Living his Earthly life without her at his side isn’t something his heart or soul can contemplate.

His Needs - Out Now #MMF #shifter #erotic #romance

Book five in the Redwood Shifters series
His needs took him away, but their needs sent them to claim him.
Raul’s mate has left camp on business but when his love letters become clipped and distant, Raul soon finds himself miserable and tetchy. Throw in some exciting news he can’t wait to share and being without Malec is not only physically painful it’s downright unbearable.
But as he heads west, in search of the man who completed his life, Raul’s imagination goes into overdrive. What if Malec doesn’t want to come home? What if he’s found another lover and their bond wasn’t as strong as he believed it to be?
There’s only one thing for it and that’s to stand up to his fears, hope the rest of his family can handle the truth, and get his man—and he’ll get him back no matter what he has to face, who he has to fight, or what price he has to pay.

Excerpt

“Crap, you haven’t pounded me like this for years,” April panted.
Derek felt her fingers clawing at his back. She hadn’t been a wildcat like this for years, either. He lifted her butt off the bed and continued plowing in and out of her. Her heels pounded his backside.
“I’m coming!” she keened. “Come with me. Do it.” 
Her verbal barrage rattled his brain, and then his cock exploded. He worked his wife’s hips back and forth along his length, spurting and filling her like she’d demanded. Breathing heavily, he flexed his arms and settled April on the bed, then leaned over and kissed her forehead. “I didn’t hurt you, did I?” Her giggles confused his muddled thoughts.
“Good grief.” Grinning broadly, she lolled her head from side to side. “Does this look like a woman in pain?”
He shook his head. “Not really. But let’s roll over so I don’t have to worry about crushing you.” He rolled them easily until April beamed down at him. 
She licked perspiration from his chin. “So watching me ride Meg’s fingers must’ve been a turn-on after all.”
He gave her a crooked smile. “That, and imagining her howling into the night.” He ran a finger along her nose. “You didn’t do badly in that department, yourself.”
“I hadn’t realized how silent I’d become over the years until Meg quizzed you about me. I could hardly keep my mouth closed in the lounge.”
“I noticed.”
“So are you ready for Meg to get more involved with us?” 
He scowled. “Do we have to? Wasn’t this good enough?”
April shook her head. “Who knows what good enough is? Do you really want to turn your back on Meg? Do you really want me to turn my back on her? We may never have this kind of opportunity again. We’re free to try whatever we want here.” She kissed his mouth and dragged her tongue across his lips. “Don’t you at least want to try? For us. Or at least, for me.”


Behind the Scenes at Meghan’s Playhouse
What’s your favorite erotic fantasy? Does it include ménage – maybe a man sandwich, or making love with a woman and a man at the same time? Have you ever kissed a girl? We started writing our Meghan’s Playhouse series to deliver some of our favorite fantasies for our readers. When we began book 1, we simply planned to write an erotic romp. We knew we wanted a young “sprite,” a bisexual woman full of energy and inventiveness, as the star in our story. We thought of her as a modern-day Aphrodite, bringing other couples together through sharing sex with both partners. In the beginning, we didn’t give too much thought to her motivation, or to that of the other major players. Characters have a way of taking over, though, and Meg wasn’t satisfied with just being a piece of fluff having hot sex scenes. Each book in the series is its own love story, stirring up emotions even Meg wasn’t prepared for.The original five-book series was first released in 2009 by a different e-publisher. It’s been unavailable for over four years, and we’re thrilled Extasy Books has contracted to re-release it, completely revised and re-edited. In the meantime, Meg insisted we write one more adventure. The six books are releasing approximately every ten weeks.
