Pokhara

James arrived safe and sound on Saturday morning.We had a really good breakfast/lunch with Haribol Ji and family and then we were taken to our hotel.It feels very strange suddenly becoming a tourist.We wandered around Thamel for the afternoon and then went for a meal at a typical Nepali restaurant.It was good fun and the food was 'meito' Yesterday I took James to OCCED to meet the children and staff.They were very pleased to see us.I was given a time limit of 1 hour as we were supposed to be having a guided tour of Kathmandu but we are going to go back again before we leave for England. We went to 'Budanath' and Patan .James then managed to get a suit ordered for Ruth's and Tom's wedding.It was a bit of a rush so we are hoping that it is going to be ok.
We have just arrived at Pokhara for the start of our trekking adventure.It is so green and quiet after Kathmandu.The Internet is likely to be very intermittent but I will try and update this whenever I can.
