Day 7: Kathmandu, Nepal

Saturday, 06 December 2008

Today we have to get organised as this is our final day in Kathmandu as we start the Annapurna Circuit tomorrow.  Yes those four weeks of gym have paid off – not.  However, we are expecting amazing scenery and great food.  Now just to find someone to carry me – apparently Scott isn’t keen, honestly 🙂

Today is also the day where we downsize out packs to bare minimum and let’s face it, I hadn’t packed large in the first place, but I am determined to reduce it by half.

The weather is so nice I also got a chance to sit out in the sun reading a book while Scott pottered around spending the afternoon talking to a lady who had just finished a 3 month Buddhist retreat where she didn’t speak – I am considering that next year.  She had a fascinating life and was interesting.

We had the traditional afternoon nap before heading otu to dinner at a nepalese restaurant in Thamel.

So after a day of doing nothing we had an early night, but we figure this will be the last relaxing day we have for quite a while.
