Today saw the team knock over most of their clothing preparation for the trek. Gary is showing a little concern that his bag is going to weigh over our allowed 10kg baggage allowance. He assured me it’s all the chocolate bars and snacks for Josh, Tess and Tahlia. I reckon it’s the Lomotil and toilet paper and spare jocks. Rhonda and Lauren have shopped well and both think they have everything needed. A final check tomorrow before the shops close just in case of any last minutes.
This evening we were invited to Nabin’s new establishment. A lounge bar he is involved with in Kathmandu. Gary, Josh, Tess and Tahlia decided to give it a miss and have an early night. Rhonda, Lauren and myself headed there. Live music, great food and a really good atmosphere. Out of the touristy area of Thamal and more generated towards the locals. The three of us felt somewhat under dressed in our Kathmandu street gear amongst locals very well dressed. We were back in our hotel by 9.30 and in bed by 10pm. Now that’s showing our age.
