namaste

Ein kurzes hello aus Nepal! Wir sind wieder in Pokhara, d.h. nach einer 4-Tages-Wanderung zum Poon Hill, was abgesehen von einem Gewitter, ein paar kleineren Wehwehchen und die nervige und teuer Buerokratie im Vorhinein echt schoen war. Vor allem der interessante aber steile Umwege, die bluehenden Rhododrendrombuesche , aeh, -baeume, Winnie und Jimmy waren hammerstark. Aber mehr davon (und Bilder!) beim naechsten Mal, mit besserem Internet. Vielleicht wenn wir von der Farm zurueck sind.

Ciao ciao! :)

PS: Wir haben heut spontan Ultimate gezockt, weil ein paar Leute auf ner Wiese hier ein Spiel gestartet hatten. Sehr cool! Natuerlich auch sehr simpel, aber hauptsache zocken!

PS(2): Wir haben schon ueber ein Dutzend Postkarten verschickt, wenigstens die aus Indien sollten angekommen sein. Meldet euch, wenn nicht und ihr noch eine wollt...

PS(3): Zeit zum Abendessen!

this is India

We woke up to the sound of a digger. At first I thought, it's just my luck and whereever I go, there's some construction work. Then Klaus called from outside our little bamboo hut: they were taking down buildings along the whole road! Someone said, they were all illegal and just for tourists, so they came with a digger and took them all down, 15 m away from our hut... People were warned by the policee a night before. This is India!

So... Welcome to Hampi!

Since that morning, we've:
-  been scared they would take down tourist accomodation
- changed our accomodation
- met some cool british girls and indian brothers we hung out with
- rented motorbikes and drove to a lake
- saw temples with monkeys and an elephant
- saw the elephan taking a bath in the river
- enjoyed te view over rice fields and banana palm trees
- enjoyed chead and tasty food
- taken it easy

But we didn't
- get diarrhea (but I have a cold)
- go into the water
- find free drinking water (at least it's cheap)
- work!

Now I really need to find a tissue and get back to chill out with Klaus. Thank God it's evening and getting a little colder...

Oh, one more thing: the train ride was easy, funny and we were on time! So screw the rumours!
