Getting Around

Oct 3- woke up to a quiet rainy morning. So peaceful, the birds are being so quiet and still this morning. I was well rested after a wonderful nights sleep with the weather being a bit cooler. 

Wendy made a nice sausage soup for lunch, so perfect for the weather. I took a nice hot shower and washed my hair with new shampoo.  It has a stiff greasy feel and I don't know if its the water or shampoo.

After lunch Simon and I went to get my Pokhara tickets and SIM card.

The roads were wet and slippery with all the mud. It was like I was ice skating.  Everywhere the streets are under construction. dusty when its dry and a mess when its rainy. But we were successful in getting all we needed. To my surprise the agent was a believer and gave me a wonderful reduced rate on my air tickets. I was expecting to pay $214 rt but he only charged me $166...that's a $50 savings.

More children came to get tutored. Simon and Wendy do such a great job with these children and you can see how much the children love them. Today's children were a little older than yesterday's.  Amos, Kumar, Asa and Simrun..two girls and two boys. They enjoyed the session and the airplanes also.

We went to have some more local food for dinner and met Luke and Alicia, some other missionaries about the same age as Simon and Wendy. It is so cheap to eat here. I think my meal was $1.80 and it was all-you-can-eat. Unbelievable and so tasty. 

On the way back we stopped at a store and ordered toothbrushes, soap and toothpaste to take to the villages.

We called Sayoni and arranged to go and see her tomorrow. I can't wait to see the baby and how she is managing.

I texted the kids and the phone works! Yeah...I'm sure they are feeling better now.
