I woke up by 10am as I was to bed by 2 or 2.30 am. A day was just fine. Felt something lacking. Felt like sweating. Backpacked my camera, water bottle, wind cheater and moved out. Where? Took 10 to 20 minutes to decide as it was not fixed early. When reached New Baneshwor, chose to go towards Kirtipur and vicinity areas.
Four hours of local walk. Started from Kirtipur to Panga to Charghare to Taudaha to Chobhar to Kathmandu.
My friend on the way was my camera, ongoing contemplation and a knapsack. Later, Hansa jee joined me in at Taudaha. And, we ended up the day at pleasingly much ruckus pub, Purple haze at Thamel.
My walk experience in pictures is as follows:
