Saturday : sunny About time we had a good sleep, it was over 9hrs. We got up and went for a $5 feast of a breakfast, then went back to the hotel to research up on our next stop, India. We pretty much spent the whole day at the hotel reading and using the Internet. We went out in the late afternoon looking at down jackets for Europe and paintings. We ended up buying two great looking paintings, it's a shame we can't hang them up. It was another rest day today,...

Friday : sunny Nothing really planned for today except to get psyched up for the bus ride back to Kathmandu. So after breakfast we got packed up and said our goodbyes to the hotel staff.

He was so helpful yesterday with organizing Will and Bobs park and plane tickets. Now today it felt like we wer...

Tuesday : sunny Didn't wake up too well this morning, I was coughing for most of the night and had a sore throat. Still we needed to get up, check out and move camp. We headed to our new hotel to meet Kim's uncle Bob and cousin Will. Bob and Will were shouting us a room at the hotel. We couldn't wait to checkin and see what this 5star hotel had to offer. The fellas were eating breakfast already, their body clocks had kicked in and were up early. Probably for...
