Many years ago, I had the privilege to visit the ancient land of Nepal. It was an amazing experience; one that I have treasured; one that I’ve wished to repeat ever since.
At one point, I spent a few days at Chitwan National Park, which is in the Terai (lowlands). The Terai is a band of grass and marshlands that runs from northern India through Nepal. Near the banks of the Rapti River, Chitwan Jungle Lodge seemed a magical place. We did some walks through the jungle, and several forays on elephant back. One evening, from the back of an elephant, I took the following photos of the grasslands.
