So hungover and hungry we touched down in Kathmandu airport from Lukla. The plan was simple: get to hotel, dump our stuff and go and grab breakfast, and spend the afternoon snoozing. The pre-arranged airport pickup man wasn't there, so we had the joy of haggling for our taxi. Oh we took the serenity of the mountains for granted! Once we threw our stuff into the hotel we dropped back our rental gea... Read Full Entry

Absolutely hilarious blog guys. How funny are those pictures of the elephants squirting yee? As for that ladyboy, he looks awfully familiar to one we had dancing for us in Turkey a few years ago! Can't wait to see you soon XXX

Time almost up!
I couldn't agree with you more Mark! When our internet connection was down here in January and February and I couldn't hear about all the goings on from down under I felt really deprived.Just the thought of not hearing about different peoples, customs and places would depress one. Still maybe you will set off again to some other part of the world we have not heard much about in the not too distant future! Yes - look forward to your next maybe last blog. Will it mention being back on the ould sod again. Slan go foill. Roll on Saturday.

After reading your travel blog on Tuesday it wa a delight to see the town of Pokhara again that night on TV3 showing a programme on the smallest people in the world. Khagendra Thapa Magar although born in Baglung now lives in Pokhara. Born in 1992 he measures 60cm and enjoys dancing. he is nicknamed the 'Little Buddha'. They showed almost the exact same images of the boats by the lake. And now its India!
