Out and about over Dasain

Holiday from offices for the Dasain festival has given us time to get out of city and into the Kathmandu valley. Heather is here with us although had a slightly scary introduction to Nepal arriving early through from custom hall to the sea of hopeful porters and taxi drivers and no sign of us.


Travelling out of city on full buses on outgoing journeys

An everyday dashboard garden or specially for Dasain?

Still quite empty but we hadn't left the bus park and plenty more came on.

Some so full inside and on top they wouldn’t even take more locals and led Heather and I to have a 10 km walk returning home, but mostly down hill and great views.
