Leaving for our trek

After a big thunder storm last night, we woke up to drizzly rain for the start of our little trekking adventure to the Annapurnas. We have decided to follow a trek we found online of a small family with a 4.5yr old in the lower Annapurna region. They did their trek over 19days, but we have about 2 weeks now. A 3-4hr bumpy bus ride, to travel around 80km, in a packed local bus took us from Pokhara to Beni. Here we learnt of the 5-6 ATMs they have, none accept MasterCard. It was my turn to experience 'delhi belly' and we did a small walk from Beni to next village Galeshaw. It started in tantrums and tears from a tired Lila (so she was on Jean's shoulders), but once we got out of the town she was happily distracted by the amazing long bridges over the river, other children along the way, goats and cows along the trail, numerous rocks and stones, finding a stick and writing her name or patterns in the dirt :)もっと詳しく
