Travel to Pokhara

We say goodbye to the Barahi Jungle Lodge and hello to a five hour drive to Pokhara Nepal. The drive is very scenic. Think kicking horse pass times 10. Distance is only about 160 km. but some rough roads to contend with. I don’t recall ever being car sick, but today I felt like hurling for around 30 minutes after looking at the iPad for a while when driving.
We met our guide and checked into the hotel, the Temple Tree. In the afternoon we went to the Tibetan Refugee Center. I could go on about that, and will when we meet again in person.

When the clouds clear, you can see some high peaks close by. There is 7 thousand meter one Machhapuchchhre (who can pronounce that) about 28 km. away. We also see the Devi Garden Waterfall and a Temple.
In the evening we are left by ourselves so we walk the streets aimlessly and find a nice place to eat with a view of the lake.Read more
