The man makes ice cream cones while his wife fills out ice cream orders

I am on the long trek up the stairs to the top of a hill in Pokhara, Nepal, to see the Vishwa Shanti Stupa or the World Peace Pagoda. I generally avoid long climbs as I am a bit past my prime, but my guide has brought me here, assuring me that the beautiful Himalayan views from on top of the mountain make the climb every bit worth it. So as I trudge wearily along, huffing and puffing, an oasis in the desert- sort of- was this ice cream vendor when we were almost there. A refreshing cold dessert is just what the doctor ordered! What added to the fun was that this gentleman makes his own ice cream cones. From wheat, so very healthy, he said. So basically, the gentleman makes ice cream cones while his wife fills out ice cream orders. A brief Hyperlapse video of the actual process appeared just before this. (see previous picture- my Facebook viewers will find this video in the separate Videos folder under my Profile). (Pokhara, Nepal, Oct/ Nov. 2019)
