Kathmandu and journey to Langtang

Kathmandu is still magical although greatly changed from 30 years ago. We roamed the streets and caught the atmosphere. Colour and chaos everywhere. But also some beautiful people who are incredibly friendl!y.

Up at 06:00 today for an 8 hour bone shaking crowded bus ride, with death defying drops of thousands of feet on the side of the road. Just best not to look. Finally arrived at the start of the trek with tantalising views of beautiful mountains visible. We have a great guide 'karma' and porter ' chietay' to accompany us  - what luxury compared with when we were last here and we did it all ourselves! 

probably no internet access for around 2 weeks so likely no blog or what's app for a while.

Sending much love. Wish you could all share this amazing experience with us
