Arrived at KAthmandu airport at 3.45pm yesterday.
First impressions amazing! Greeted by our driver and each of us was garlanded before we took off in a minibus for the most adventurous and scary ride I can recall. THE TAFFIC IS quite mad, all sorts of trucks, cars and motor bikes by the thousands zig zag around what loosely can be described as roads like a swarm of frenzied bees. QUITE EXCITING !
Hotel Malla is a fine hotel. The rooms are first class standard. A quiet evening and off to bed by 10pm.
This morning we walked with our guide along very narrow streets where the traffic somehow manages two way travel, how I cannot say it seems impossible to me, but they appear to manage with much hooting of horns.
After our 2 hour briefing we have had a free afternoon.Tonight we are to be taken for dinner to the Bhojan griha restaurant. Further blogs will follow.

Hi Billy
ReplyDeleteGlad u made it there safely. Wishing you all the very best on your adventure. You're going to be missing the rugby this year, so if Scotland win the Grand Slam, you'll be gutted.
Take care
