Friday 18 December

It was a good sleep and I'm glad we have time before we have to be up to attend breakfast with the group. We go to hot breads. The food is pretty good! We order mint tea. Which turns out to be tea with a few fresh mint leaves. If it's not plain tea or coffee or chai it's often not right. It's kinda funny. We arrange a time to meet for our momo dumpling lunch and then part ways. We go researching hiking trips and get a few different quotes and ideas. There is a felt shop that gives me good ideas for gifts. We find our new hotel and then head back for a rest before we head out for lunch. The momo's are pretty good and they come really quick. After lunch we go browsing the shops. I find a few things I like, but the quality is so low, and not cheap so I pass them by. Malcolm has a nap and I do some research into volunteering. We all meet in the lobby at 5pm and discuss the trip over chai. Then we say our goodbyes. I enjoy the wifi then head to our room for some food. We just have a quiet evening. Except for the loud music we hear. Must be from a restaurant or bar nearby. Good things the music is ok! We are in the dark awhile when the power goes out. I have my 2nd shower by phone light. Looking forward to bed.
