Some lovely shots Donna ! It seems a very colourful place ?
After my trips to Nepal I heard a lot about this modern day Shangri-la, and put Bhutan on my "places to see" list, but I have n't made it yet ... coming from Australia I cannot seem to get past south east Asia ...especially now I have a thai girlfriend !
