Had terrible stomach cramps last night and felt quite ill. I have now become a member of the Kathmandu Trot Club. As Saturday is the only day free from school I was determined to make the most of it and went to visit theTibetan Refugee camp with the two new volunteers. Unfortunately many of the shops and the carpet factory were closed because it was Saturday.

We returned to Pokhara and came across a colourful religious procession walking down the main street. It was very noisy with different groups playing instruments and chanting

Nicki, never mind about the trots...just look at that wonderful weather and views of Fishtail you have! Have a good week at school...
