so after three days of being in kathmandu, we finally got around to doing a bit of sight-seeing! We've been spending time preparing for our trek and arranging other tours to do when we get back. We walked up to Swayambunath Stupa, "The Monkey Temple", and walked through the Durbar square.
Unfortunately I dont have much time to write stuff now, so i'll leave you with a few pics. The link to the right shows all the pics.
its a massive tourist trap at the top...
having lunch on another sunny roof top terrace. Not too sure about the sweet and sour veg. It was like heinz tomato soup with garden peas chucked in for good measure! It gets pretty hot here during the day, and the temperature drops suddenly when the sun goes down.
reena's old uni mate, mike, arrived yesterday. he'll be joining us on the everest trek, which starts tomorrow! we meet the rest of our group in about three hours time... wonder what they'll be like. Reena and I are worried that we're going to be the two pathetic small girls at the back constantly whinging and holding everyone back! I'll let you know how it goes....
