- A minivan bumped along the windy roads in the Himalayas as Tsewang the guide toured him through Bhutan, past Yaks and Takins and Monasteries
- Finally, hours later, they arrived at the only Costco in the entire Himalayan region. Though reborn of Siddhartha and close to enlightenment, he needed a bulk purchase of

- Rahula had never before worn animal fur coats, as far as Indira knew. Her chinchilla went everywhere with her, even on the bus or train. The Mt. Everest staff greeted her
- with poise and honorifics, all while eyeing the small chinchilla dog. That little bitch would become fur pelt by the time this visit was over.
