Not another monastary...

Sightseeing in Sikkim means visiting monasteries. So, after our first few, Ashwin's refrain became "not ANOTHER monastery?" But really, we all enjoyed them (including Ashwin) - the architecture was striking and colorful, learning more about Buddhism was really intriguing, there was lots of history, and as Tibetan Buddhists always build their monasteries on hill tops, we got to see a lot of great scenery (and do a lot of vigorous hiking) on the way.
