Hey hey hey!
Thanks God we are alive, we' ll tell you later what happened to us...
We left our hotel at 13h, and caught a cab to go to a travel agency that our hotel recommended to us. We wanted to buy our tickets to Katmandu - Nepal.
The travel agency did not seem serious at all so we decided to leave, they wanted us to pay for flights that did not even seem to exist - in cash (we won't talk about the amount).
So we decided to leave, quickly checked out our lonely planet travel guide and went to another agency that seemed much better, the manager of the agency explained to us everything so we reserved our tickets.
We are going to go, with a special offer (all included) to the Hyatt of Kathmandu, an amazing hotel...

After that, we went for a walk in town, but it was raining cats and dogs so we decided to go to have dinner at 18h to a typical Bangladeshi restaurant. (Let's not talk about the food, very very very very very spicy.)

Going out of the restaurant, we asked for a cab to the security guy. He came with us to catch one, and we gave him a tip.
Apparently, this tip wasn't enough for him, he got pissed off and he said something laughing to the taxi driver.
The taxi driver seemed a bit dodgy but we did not care much at the beginning.
He changed spontaneously the way back home and said to us that he wanted to take a shortcut. He passed through an army control saying that he was "bringing four foreigners home".
Obviously, the soldier stopped us, started asking us some questions in a scary way, and finally - after five intense minutes - said to the driver to go back and take another road.
After this army intervention, we were tired, scared and very pissed of with the driver and the other guy of the restaurant.

I (Jacopo) punched him on his shoulder shouting, telling him, in Italian to go immediately to the hotel. It seems that he understood and we luckily arrived safe and sound.
That's it for today, we'll come back tomorrow with some fresh news of the bank. (Yes, in this country we work on sudays.)
