Nepal was very interesting and hospitable to us.

We spent days exploring Kathmandu.

Taken a sightseeing flight over the Himalayas.

And there are plenty of Himalayas.

We did enjoy ourselves.


There are special flights to the Himalayas from Kathmandu.

For US$100 per person you can go and nearly touch these giants of the mountains.

The Himalayas looked awesome from our plane window.

Kathmandu was fascinating and memorable.
