Day 2 - Quality time....

Did I mention that you are totally spoiled on your trek??? Not only do you get a guide but EVERY meal you get is massive and depending on your choice - DELICIOUS! I think while being on this trek I eat MORE.
In any case, to day we treked North for about 3 hours. Stopping at a place called Landruk. Here we ate a VERY nice lodge and shortly during lunch it started to rain. The place was VERY clean and homely - meaning the bathroom didn't mae me cry - which we love so we decided to NOT trek that afternoon and spend the day just talking about LIFE.
I know we spend all our time together and perhaps it is easy to think that it means we have nothing to say more - BUT really talking and just enjoying a gorgeous moment is not often and getting to spend LONG hours enjoying each others company without the distraction of people or tv was so revitalizing.
Even more amazing was that as the sun too away our views, we got an even more gorgeous surprise - we were treated to fire flies all over the place! It was magic, like twinkling stars right before your hands and nearly touchable. Never having seen them Briel laughed as I was lie a child eating icecream for the 1st time.
Food in all the tea houses is the same menu. Nepal has set up a cmmitte to handle the prices, and the quality of service and food. Dal Bhat is th local favourite food which nearly all eat for lunch and dinner. It consists of white rice, vege curry, pickle, chapati/roti, Lentil soup. Delicous but can be VERY spicey. Plus every place will bake its own bread!
Briel and I felt inspired today! Good food, great views, great company in each other. Really felt like a honeymoon!
Ciao for now
