My flight out of Kathmandu is not until tomorrow so I spent my day roaming the street of Kathmandu looking for souvenirs and nik-naks! The weather was hot and sticky until the rain came and cooled us off a bit in the afternoon! I went to lunch all by myself to the Black olive restaurant, by now they know me since this is my third time in there!! I had my last Dal-Bhat for the vacation and it was great... after that I headed to a nice coffee place for my afternoon espresso! All in all a very low energy day with lots of breaks both in the room and outside as well... I waved my last group-mates good bye as they headed back home to China and India! The other group-mates have already left bright and early today to some other locations within Nepal, Pokhara and the jungle ??? Tomorrow I will be off to Abu Dhabi then the States...
A street in the commercial district "Thamel" of Kathmandu
Store front full of stuff in the Thamel district of Kathmandu
Temples and other buildings are part of the mix
The remnance of the devastating earthquake that hit Nepal is evident everywhere
Police on foot petrolling the street of Kathmandu, pretty safe I have to say
