Early morning lake and the Buffalo's taking full advantage of the calmness before the locals wake u,. and early morning is the best time to catch a view of the mountains since by mid morning the will be completely enveloped as the heat and humidity builds towards afternoon rains.
The airport is a good place to hangout - well, the local winged birds think so! A good variety can be spotted over a few hours here, especially birds of prey - Black Kites and White Vultures. Numerous quantities of Bulbuls and Shrikes flitting around underneath the airports runway final flight-path.
May 17th and and another quake hits Nepal. Not as strong as April and further away from Pokhara - somewhere near Mount Everest according to the news. Still, quite a jolt felt here. People running into the street fearful of buildings collapsing. Yes, its another adrenaline moment where it could all end rather badly. Actually, it lasts about 2 seconds and appears to be pretty a pretty weak affair in comparison to the 7.9 rupture.
Stomping back to lakeside then and taking a little more notice on how the quality of construction is shaping up - a long way from Western standards that's certain and plain to see.
