Asphodel Inn Singapore

... we're holed up in a coffee place with 6 hrs free Internet and our bags on a trolley. This is the high life I tell thee!

So lets rewind a few days back anyway and explain a little bit about what else we've been up too. After doing A.B.C we basically chilled out in Pokhara for 5 or so days, got a boat out on the lake, ate well, slept lots, started watching The Wire again (Nepal shuts-down around 10pm usually) and simply relaxed before heading back to KTM ...

Day 2

Well discovered about the lights. People put them on when they come home – midnight, 2 am … etc. They went on & noise was to be had, but didn't stay on too long!! So tired I went straight back to sleep

Slept in & left about 9.30am.Had the best day walking for miles ...

Today we spent some time exploring Little India which really involved shopping and eating and then eating some more. We LOVE Indian food and were able to multi-task as we snacked and shopped. I also had a henna tattoo done on my hand of an intricate Indian design. I love it and ...

... walking on. One thing I hate more than anything is when people cut in line. Maybe it's because I'm impatient and figure that if I have to wait for something, everyone else does too.
