Kathmandu

We were lucky last night. We arrived just after a rain storm that washed away the smell of rotting garbage....we weren't sure that we were actually here!!!
Kathmandu is a city of contrasts. Walking down the streets we hear the music of chanting and the smell of incense wafting as we walk down the crowded streets listening fir the horns of the approaching traffic. Then we walk into fire and ice a pizzeria that sells ice cream for desert and we have the familiar smells of home and hear Bat out of Hell blaring from the speakers.
This picture is the entrance to our hotel and inside there is a pillar that has flower pedals surrounding the base.
We have repacked our bags and weighed them. We are at our limit which is great. Just a few more Pringles chips to buy and we are done. The plan for tonight is a late supper at the Rum Doodle restaurant.
