We couldnt go all the way to the border because The Mouists and blocking the roads and setting buses on fire. We had to take an auto riksha whiytch is a bicicle with a seat in the back through the strike zone and then for 2 hours in the sun to the border. Once Shi*! a big monkey just walked by me in the internet place. haha. They have big teeth. He just hissed at me. The owner gave me a stick to scare him away. Ill finish ythe story later. Im going.

We are back!!!!!!!! It was alot of fun. We treked for 3 days from Naiapool to Tatopani. There were something like 3500 stone steps. It was crazy. Going down the stairs hurt the most. On the first day, we stayed in tickahunga. It was nice there. We hiked 5 or 6 hours that day. The next day, we hiked about the same amount but through almost a tropical forest. There were so many beautiful water falls and plants and trees and bugs. Millions of lady bugs. That day, we got to ghorepani. That night, it rained and hailed like crazy, hail the size of marbles. The following morning, We hiked up to the top of poon hill, the best view point in nepal, at 5. It was breathe taking. I posted a video of it below but it doesnt show how amazing it was and how close the mountains were. That day, We hiked the amount that we hiked the first 2 days. It was long and hard. Mostly down stairs. Then we got to Tatopani. It was nice to go to the hot springs after the day. I went every night. We stayed for about a week. The people were so nice. in The picture, it is of me and the staff. From right to left, there is kumar, me, Gore, And... umm... i forgot his name. The next picture is of me and my bud Uma. He didnt have a name so thats what i named him. I took him for walks and stuff. He is super friendly. Im going to miss him. He doesnt like the rope on his horns though. The food was exellent there. They had a great apple pie and delicous tacos. We had tacos every night. They were the first place we had been that has pinto beans. Now were back in Pohkara. We will be here for another week. Ok, ill update again soon. bye

They played eric clapton and cream and U2 and pink floyd. I played pool most of the time. Well, Ill talk to you in a week. :)
