There was an entire pack of 14-16 year old Nepali girls shadowing Jim's and my every movement. We would look over and wave, they would run and hide. This went on for hours.

I thought this was very funny and decided to take a picture of the girl that I had determined to be their "alpha-female."

Indeed, immediately after I took her picture she walked right up to Jim and decided to make contact. She asked us something historically funny, "are you two from Hollywood?"

We laughed and told her we sadly were not but all the same her and about ten of her friend wanted our autographs signed on the palms of their hands. It was a funny and memoriable experience. I think the most memorable feature of this picture is her smile.

At least she is famous now. The world saw her in your blog. Much better than Hollywood !
What is her name ?

Wow, that smile is indeed memorable! And you two are now famous as well--signing autographs indeed! Where's mine?

Lovely shot, by the way--the lighting is perfect!
