Farm to city

In Tibet the main crop is barley, but here in Nepal it is wheat. I do not know if they get two crops per year, but they were already harvesting and it is only May. Strangely they bring the wheat into the city and separate the grain from the chaff on the small squares.

It is a sub-tropical climate here so crops grow easily and there seems to be a wide variety of vegetables in the stores. With the exception of a couple of meals with chicken, I have been pretty much vegetarian on this trip. Kathmandu is the place to eat Momos which are small dumplings, so I will definitely try those.
