Kathmandu Rest Day
The petrol trouble continued into the next day. This meant there was a lot of waiting around for everyone involved. The initial plan to take the cars to a local petrol station was abandoned when the owner of the station said he feared that there may be riots. Over the afternoon plans were made for a small tank of petrol to be delivered directly to the cars in the hotel forecourt, but with no mention of time this proved to be a long afternoon. Many took advantage of the long waiting to go and do some shopping in the market.
Morna and Peter and Will and Wilhelm drove part way to Koshi Tappu that evening to make the next days drive a bit shorter, giving them hope they may arrive in the light. This stop is also known to be one of the best viewing points for Mount Everest.
