Pokhara day 3

Slept much better, apart from the fact that I forgot to switch of my alarm so I was awoken at 4.45am(idiot!!!)
Looked out of my window approx 6.30 and the sun was shining on the mountains!I had toyed with the idea of going out early but had decided against it.
had some breakfast, met Sue and Reggie and we deceided to go out on the lake.
I had heard on BBC World News that Spurs had won 4-0 last night,so aws in a good mood.
Got to the boat station, looked for BabaRam but he was still asleep according to the other guys. Arranged for a young guy to take us out on the lake.It was very peaceful and the views were great.Finally got to take some photos of the mountains and reflections in the lake, so am very happy.Spent the rest of the morning chilling and recharging my batteries.Meeting Bridget for lunch at the Monsoon cafe. On the way lookeed in at the Tibetan craft shop to select bracelets for Sandra and the girls.Weather is very hot,approx 32 degrees C, but it does get cooler of a night now.Felt really relaxed today. Tomorrow we undertake the trip back to Kathmandu, some 6 hours, so was glad not to do much today.
Had dinner at the Moondance with Bridget.Had another power cut , this one eventually lasted 4 hours!
Bridget is a very nice lady, she set up her business arranging tours some 15 years ago.She and her husband work very hard ensuring their clients have a good time and a wonderful experience on their tours.I wish them all the success, they deserve it.
After dinner Sue and Bridget said their goodbyes, some sadness on both sides at leaving, but Sue will be back to see her next year.
Went back to the hotel, power back on. Packed the last few things and managed to catch some English footie on tv. Even saw the goals from Spurs last 2 games, result!
Tried to sleep, but not a great night.
