Really nice isn't it?
think it was around now that I realised that I was about to throw out!
Really, I felt so sick...
The girl that threw up in the sky.
Steak fillet... not too good.
Had a hearty breakfast at the hotel. Finally have got my appetite back!!! Phew!!!
Must I mention that I have lost quite a bit of my tummy? Haha..
Spent the morning wandering around old Pokhara. Visited a Hindu temple and tried to navigate our way around the messy streets to The Gurka Museum. Old Pokhara has a completely different vibe, compared to the touristy Pokhara city that we were in. The houses were made of red bricks and the people a lot friendlier.
The Gurkha Museum was walk through the military history. These indigenous people are warriors in their own right. The porters that I have seen in the mountains had already impressed me, much less these soldiers.
What trip would be complete without a dose of extreme fun?!?? Hahaha... We spent the afternoon up in Sarankgot paragliding!!! First time for me!!!! Haha... It was quite fun, except for the motion sickness that got me, 5 minutes into the glide. Hahaha... Loser right?? It was a tandem jump, my flight instructor is a hippy, long hair Bulgarian with a lame sense of humour. It was a cloudy noon but still managed to catch the view of a few mountains and the whole of Pokhara, the Como lake, World Peace Pagoda, terrace paddy fields etc. Yanbin who was laughing at me throughout the morning even vomited during her flight. Haha.. Karma!
Had dinner at a steak house. DISAPPOINTED!!!! can't believe how they won any award with the kind of meat they serve.
