Waking up at half nine was a struggle, but we had to. We took a taxi back to the airport hoping that they had brought our luggage on the morning flight. We came to realize the flight was delayed so we had to wait outside the airport for another hour. We met with other passengers who were also in the same situation. Luckily they came on the flight and we were so happy so retrieve them. We went back to the Guest House. Before unpacking, we went to Fire and Ice to eat lunch. Food was great - it was an authentic Italian restaurant. On the way back, we got a Sim card for my phone. When we got back to the room, we each took a shower and put on some new clothes. Night was falling and we went out to dinner to Food Bazaar where we had Paneer Makhini with garlic naan. The food was not that great, however we were really hungry. We then went to the local supermarket to buy soap, shower gel, water and other necessities. Our neighbor, who is punjabi and lives in England came over to introduce herself. Her name was Manmeet. We talked about making plans for our upcoming weekends and our stay here in Kathmandu.
