Well the excitement is building up now. Less than 3 weeks until I fly out to Kathmandu, and still lots to do and friends to see. My flight is booked for the evening of August 2nd and then I hope to get an internal flight to Pokhara, monsoon weather permitting. I so look forward to seeing all the friends I made in Nepal and to get down to some more teaching.
I am trying to learn some more language, but its not easy with no one to practise on. Meg, my dog, just doesn't seem to understand, and the voices on the net who are giving lessons don't answer me!! Ruth Rai lives over an hour away so can't go there often for a chat. Still Sue is coming next week, so perhaps she will help.
There are mixed feelings about leaving my home and garden, my dog, and of course all my family and many friends, but I remember that the weeks sped by so quickly last time and I didn't want to leave Nepal. God is good to give me the desire of my heart which was is to go back.
I am trying to think of nice things to take, like decent chocolate and marmite etc.(some good cheddar would be welcomed, but it might not travel well!! I am making list after list and lists of lists!! but then I forget where I put the list.
The next few days will speed by and then I will be off off and away.
It will be a different adventure this time. One month in Pokhara and then off to Surkhet. Looking forward to meeting up with the team over there and renewing friendships, but not looking forward to the travelling so much.
More later if I have time!! but it may be when I reach Nepal!
