It has been a very intense day today, I´ll explain you why…
This is a pic we took from the airplane! Guess wot mountain is the big darker one on the left!? Mt. Everest 8850 mt. = the Top of the World
First thing, Ferdi woke up very ill, and had some symptoms of Malaria and Dengue.
He was worried so he decided to go to the Hospital and was planning to miss the trip and fly to Singapore to get some better medical treatment.
Constantin, Nicolo and I grabbed a cab to go to Zia International Dhaka airport, while Ferdi was in Dhaka Hospital taking some blood tests.
He finally made to finish them and succeeded to arrive in time for the check in.
(He did not have anything of that, just a normal flu)
Our plane was a Fockker F28, a very small plane, of Biman Bangladesh Airlines.
(not very encouraging…)
Just want to say that this plane is not allowed to fly in Europe any more, too old---
We arrived to Kathmandu and the Hyatt minivan was waiting for us in the airport.
They took us to the hotel and here the problems started.
(We booked the hotel in expedia.com the 4 of us in one room, and it was impossible for them because only 3 people can feet in one room.- it was an expedia mistake.)
After an hour of discussions and the expedia confirmation we managed to get one room for all of us , plus the breakfast of everyone of us for free for for every day, not bad…
A couple of hours later, we checked out the facilities of the hotel, Spa, gym, and surprisingly a running truck of 1 km, that runs through the temples, the yen gardens, etc.
Nico and I (Jacopo) runned 2 km, then did some gym and finally relaxed in the Steam bath, Sauna and Jacuzzis… (because of the very exhausting day…jaja)
Ferdi was stil not feeling well so he stayed in bed for dinner (room service.)
Consti, Nico and I went to the best steak restaurant in town, (at least what the lonely planet guide says) it was really pleasant to eat some good meat and hamburgers after 2 exhausting weeks in Dhaka and 3 tiresome days in the village…
Tomorrow we will go to visit a city called Bakhtapur, which is known worldwide for its hindu temples and because it is the oldest city of Asia.
We´ ll tell you tomorrow how it went.
Good night everyone. Peace.
