2: Here are our wonderful hosts in Kalimpong Mr. & Mrs. Norman Odling. A friend in New York, Henrietta Merrick, had made an interesting trip in the Himalayan country of Leh and Ladakh the year before and gave us a letter to the Odlings. The letter went off to them and was followed by a phone call asking us to stay with them in Kalimpong. Their suggestion that they knew the Tibet problem was all the inducement we needed. Norman had lost a leg in WWI and had come to Kalimpong to recuperate. His wife, Bunty had been born there. Her father the reverend Dr. Graham had created there “The St. Andrews Colonial Homes” to educate and train Anglo-Indian children.
