Homeward bound

On arriving back in Bangkok and transitioning through the airport with ease, we caught a taxi to "The Silom Village Inn" (the driver tried to get away without using his meter grrrrr - but we were insistent that he do so, as it is definately the cheaper option!!!!). Ahhhh comfortable bed/aircon/tv - I think for the next 3 days we shall just stay in the room hehehe.

Spoke to soon - In actual fact we did end up spending most of our time in the room, as I got a tummy bug GREAT!!! Nice little memory to take home!

Time to go home - can't wait to see my boys...........This adventure is over.........what will be my next one? Keep checking on my blog to see what adventure unfolds next.

Goodbye Kathmandu

The Streets of Thamel, Kathmandu

After spending our last few days in Kathmandu doing last minute shopping, emailing and catching up with Dawa for goodbye drinks the time had come to leave this place we had become so fond of. Nima escorted us to the airport where we said our very sad goodbyes as he hugged us and wrapped a good luck scarf around our necks. I know we'll be back to Nepal - the people are so beautiful. The airport ------well that's another story!!!!!! It was a very disorganised and HOT (almost suffocating) experience checking in at Kathmandu airport. The crowds are pretty intense, there is no aircon and everyone is shoving and pushing. The flight was delayed approx 3 hours, but when we eventually took off, it ended up being a good flight so we were happy.
