Bodies

We went to Pashupati today. I saw dead people burning. I saw them cut out a lady's eyes before they burnt her. Then they put rocks on her chest, so she wouldn't sit up during the burning. They put a lit candle in her mouth, then hay on her, so she could light her own fire.

There were wild monkeys everywhere. I saw one with no hands and one with no tail. I also saw one steal a ladies handbag.

We climbed all the stairs and saw the entire area. It was quite dirty. There was a heap of rubbish in the river.

We saw lots of Sadu Babas. Mum met one who was 110 years old and Cody took a photo of them.
