Going against everything I believe in, I woke up at 5am today to take a drive to the highest point in Pokhara to watch the sun rise over the Himalayas. As luck would have it, the cloud gods are back in full force, and we couldn't even see one peak. The cloud cover was so thick, it even took me a while to notice that the sun was on the horizon. Based on the pictures all the locales were hawking, the view is pretty amazing when the sky is clear. You can see 10 or so major Himalayan peaks. Moral of the story is that nothing good has ever come from waking up at 5am.
We are supposed to hike to the World Peace Pagoda in a bit, but I'm not feeling the need to get dusty and dirty for a second time today. Plus, I've already run, which automatically makes it a productive day no matter what else you do. True story.
Ben,
ReplyDeleteIf the MBA thing doesn't work out you may have a new carrier as a "blogger." What a blogger does, I don't know. But, I think you have nailed it with your travel ditties.
