Well you see I do read your blog! I'm surprised that with your adventerous mind Vic that you just didn't tell them to forgo the pilot and jump yourself! That way you might have caught the same thermal uplifting winds! That or just eat so
me of that food on display and have your own gas power!!

This was truly a laugh-out-loud narrative - I hope you seriously consider getting this extended adventure published as a literary travel memoir. It has all the elements of a best seller: the right amount of historical and current location i

What a trip this has been for you guys. I am properly envious! It will be great seeing you, when you get back. Nepal, I've always wanted to go there. Sadly, it seems much less appealing now. See you both soon Stay safe!
