m writing dis when on de 6 hrs drive frm kathmandu to pokhara. today is just de 2nd dday in Nepal, but i feel like had been here for a decade aledi. when 1st stepped in Nepal, u really will confuse whether u r at de wrong place of india. but can easily get used of de environment mayb because the places dat v visited recently r.......a bit ulu, sorry to say, but i still love.... the 1st place dat v visited of Durbar Square had pretty much gv us an introductory abt dis place. the gap btw rich n poor r so much dif when v went into the king street to hv our 1st dinner here. visiting the Kumari is quite interesting n strange, when a small gal aged like 6,7 yrs old appear at de window for like 1 minute, n ppl prayed her like a kamisan.

dis journey i can hardly eat bcoz of de wisdom tooth surgery at de bottom left n it start to pain on de right as well, n i need to steal toilet issues everywhere bcoz of aunt visit, wtf!

just at de beginning of dis journey, i aledi feel like a documentary come to real live. i mean when u watch documentary say how the kids cant get a proper education, how they hv to walk for hrs even to danger their life crossing the river just by a rope, how the baby just sleep by the roadside wif all the rubbish around them, u will just feel pitty n kesian, but when they r real in front of ur eyes, the feeling cant even be expressed.u will just feel like how lucky n blessful u r.

Nepal is actually quite a relaxing n tiring trip. woke up like 4.30am yst to go to Sarangkot to see the sunrise. Seeing the little red light coming out frm the snow mountain top with a cup of hot milk coffee in ur hand is a million worth experience. The devil falls in the itinerary is actuary called Davis falls which named after a swiss lady who body was found there. then right opposite de Davis fall is the Mahebdra's cave which is a really Batu Cave alike experience without the never ending stairs. seeing the sun lighting coming in at de end of the cave with the Davis fall is like i m at the venue of all those chinese kongfu movie taken... =.='''''

the Phewa Lake sampan ride is like a sauna or hot sun bath for us. mayb v aledi got enuf sun in Malaysia, so none of us is really enjoying the boat trip. n the boatman behind us thought dat v r from Taiwan just bcoz v speak mandarin.. swt....

after lunch there is totally no activities! so v r like staying in the hotel room frm 2pm onwards... wt!!!! there is a donno wat festi celebration of the Nepalese starting the week after, so there is swing made of bamboo n rope dat can easily be found anyway.they hv de believe dat when u r on the swing, ur leg is away frm the earth n u r giving ur mother earth a release. but i was thinking how abt the bamboo dat stuck in it???? okie.... mayb i m being too over... >< now on de six hours bus drive back to Kathmandu again....


Sunrise at Sarangkot....











With Terri n Mr. Kamal....








Malaysia Boleh.... ><

Up with Buddha Air for a touch Everest with Heart flight... but was too tired n the flight is delayed for an hour more, so most of us actually slept after over excited seeing the Everest which v can hardly differentiate it btw others.... Then rush for hotel breakfast n continued our sightseeing...

Pashupatinath, our 1st stop, where the Nepalese people believe their after death, their body should be clean by the holy river to wash away all the sins. Visited the social center there. the elderly is trying to tell us the stories of their life but v can hardly understand. our tour guide was trying to translate it for us until he himself also hv to hold hard for tears.

Patan city, a place famous with it art n cultural, especially the singing bowl which is believed hv the healing effect n is exported to Tibet. My parents bought 1 n is now putting on de coffee table to scare my doggie...   ><'''''

V had the best chinese cuisine lunch in Bhaktapur city for our 6 days trip in Nepal. The sweet n sour fish dish was actually taught by a Malaysian tour leader...

Rush for our last POI before heading back to Msia. Boudhanath Stupa is one of the largest n holiest stupa in the world. u can see people around the world coming here to pray with their heart. n i think there is a really nice place to shop as well... for the handcraft thingy at very reasonable price... they even gv u a handmade cute cotton bag no matter wat u buy frm them... so so so kawaii~~~


The 1st Nepalese lady dat climbed up Everest... But too sad she died while on her way back...
