Just another note...

Hello all,

We are leaving tomorrow ( March 3rd) from Kathmandu for a 9 day trek (we are now addicted!) in Langtang National Park and will probably be out of contact during this time. Considering that Kathmandu, a major city, has power for only half the day we would consider this to be very distinct possibility up in the mountains. If you don't hear from us please don't worry! It is a well traveled route and we have registered with the national park and they know our route and our expected time of completion. We tried to get up to date with the blog before we left but the constant load shedding in both Pokhara and Kathmandu made it very difficult. Obviously we are now in Nepal and are dying to show and tell you all about Kathmandu, Pokhara, busrides, paragliding and crazy religious festivals but we will have to do that when we return. We hope everyone is happy and healthy and we can't wait to see some of you in April and May.

Sending much love,

Meg and JB

Watch out for elephants. Be well, have fun, and safe travels to you both.

Not that you asked for it, but here are two important tips. One, watch your body for altitude sickness. Two, when crossing a stream or river, no matter how deep, take your pack off and carry it only on one shoulder. You can drown in a foot of water with a pack lodged under a rock.

HI What a great treck Makes the overland in Tassie look a little tame. Except maybe for the snakes!!! I agree with PTU to have your packs so that you can drop quick if need be. I carry mine in front in my arms when crossing water. Less chance of load shifting. Be careful and enjoy. Dad O
