Monday 22nd We travelled back in the taxi from Agra to Delhi, 6 HOURS, stopping at Fatehpur Sikri (renamed fattybum sikri - as we couldn't remember the name), it was a big temple thing with houses for all the wives but the favourite wife got the best house and the others had tiny ones!! Saw lots of chipmunks and the place where all the naughty people were killed by elephants!!! Crushed to death. On the way back to Delhi we drove through some really rural areas and saw lots of huts made from pooh (cow). They are used to burn things in and the straw ones used for storage. Back at Ajanta by 6 and had pizza and chips yum!!!! I accidentally asked Claire if shed done a pooh really loudly in the restaurant whoops!!!! There has been a lots of pooh updates as we don't want to get the squits!!!! Tuesday 23rd Got the taxi to Delhi airport where we discovered Indian barbies!!!!!!!! Wow!! Flew over some of the Himalayan range on the way to Kathmandu - might have seen Everest but if we did we cant recognise it anyway!!! Met my mum and dad at the airport - they are much taller than the Nepalis so saw them straight away. I went back to their house on dads (Walley) motorbike and bear went in a taxi with mum (Kate). They live in Patan which is a large city next to and joining Kathmandu. House is nice - can sit on the roof and go swimming in local pool. The school where they teach is right next door and the zoo is across the road - you can smell the animal pooh. We went for a walk around the area they live - lots of western families about. We also went for a meal at a Malaysian restaurant. We met mum and dads landlords who have a slave boy called Santos who lives in a cupboard under the stairs outside like Harry Potter. We want to sneak him into our house and give him sweeties and hugs boohoo! Wednesday 24th Mum gave us a tour around the school and introduced us to people who we have now completely forgotten doh!! We ate the school dinner - the national dish of Dhal Bat - lentils and curry stuff and rice. Bear and I went for a walk around the main streets in Patan to familiarise ourselves with it. We went to Patan Durbar (main) square which had loads of temples. We could only look at the shops on one side of the road because we are crap at crossing roads. Mum and dad then took us to Thamel - hippy place - on a Tuk-tuk and a rickshaw, there were loads of cool shops and it monsooned on us so we went into a material shop and bought some fabric to make our tops with yay! There is a street called bead street - full of stalls with shiny colourful beads. The streets don't have names - they are named after what's on them like spice street. There is a weird tradition of making a young child a goddess - they pick a girl them treat her like royalty and worship her until she hits puberty when they discard her and choose a new one. It is then unlucky for any man who want to marry the ex goddess as it is said that they will die young, so they have a crappy life poor things. We saw the temple of a goddess who is 9 at the mo. Went to a steak house - first proper meat in days - yum!!!! Bye for now p.s. - very important notice!!!!!! Please will somebody tell us what happened in Invasion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please,, please pretty please!!!!!!
