Festivals, Festivals all the time

It is Festival Time here in Nepal...we left for Annapurna during one and returned to another. We have heard many different interpretations of what the festival represents, but will just tell you what we see. First off, everyone seems happier than normal, which is hard to be here in Nepal as everyone seems extremely happy all the time. In fact, their is no shortage of happiness here. Kids come to the doorstep of every business and sing until the owner gives them 5 rupees (the equivalent of 14...

Leaving KTM by bus to PKR

It was time to leave Nepal. Ed Water's visa would expire in two days and he wanted to spend a night in the village where he had been posted as a volunteer. It was South of Pokhara so we agreed we would take a very early AM bus West to PKR then South to Bhutwahl. The following day we would exit Nepal at Sunauli and into India. Here are some scenes of KTM taken over several months time. View from roof of my residence in Lazimpat, KTM. Jan. 1980. Himalayas were visible when this picture was take...

First Impressions of Kathmandu

Upon arrival in Kathmandu, we were recieved by Nava from Environmental Trekking and proceeded to his office to settle the payment and adminstrative details of the hike. Following which today, we mostly spend our time sight-seeing, walking around and shopping. Oh. Don't forget the eating as well which I will mention below. It's been 2 days since we landed at Kathmandu, and its quite difficult to find internet around here. Tomorrow, we're waking up early for our flight out to Lukla, the startin...

Give ...

A further drink and loo stop was eventful with a jolly nepalese lady serenading the entire village from her balcony just over the road from the cafe, bless her, she obviously had a couple ...

Wolverines, Go!

... on top of a bus?" It really was pretty hilarious.

Vickrim and Arjun in the front were calling out to all of the girls as we passed, though Arjun told us Vickrim has a pretty hot girlfriend. Nisha speaks Punjabi which is close enough to Nepali, so the porters LOVE her, haha. Vickrim gave her his number and we might all meet up tonight in Kathmandu.

As we drove into Pokhara, there was a huge advertisement on the side of a building for Playboy Whiskey ...
