Kathmandu

Pictures


Met up with Tanya to see if we'd make good trekking partners. Tanya had already met a lovely Israeli couple called Raz&Ela on the plane and they wanted to come to. More the better! They wanted to do the Annapurna Circuit, which is 3 weeks. Did I want to do a 21 day trek with people I'd only just met? You bet! There all easy going and what did we have to lose?

We booked the trek through a trekking company and hired a guide/porter and porter to carry our stuff. Look, the stuff is heavy and I have no intention of doing my back in, ta very much! Besides it only cost us $108 each including $30 for the trekking permit.
Take a look for yourself around the route I'll be taking around Annapurna.
In the afternoon Tanya and I went to the Monkey Temple which was great. So peaceful, full of nice people and a real joy. Getting back in the dark not so good!
Made a list of things to buy tomorrow for the trek. It's big...
