Sights and sounds from the front steps of the hotel....some amazing sights...all the motorcycles have guards on the front to protect the driver's legs from cars etc. The driver must wear a helmet. But not the passenger. ? Duh....no one gets hit..amazing with the volume of walkers and vehicles on a narrow street.

Had a very nice breakfast..on top of the hotel..comfortable..nice waiter...tipped him 100 rupies..which is like a dollar..and that is a generous tip.

Going on tour all day tomorrow...will tell me then where to go on the followup days.

My treking group shoukd have reached base camp yesterday and starting back down today..will take 3 days and then fly back to Katmnandu on the morning of the 4th.
