Nepal, part deux

It is morning (somwhere it is morning right, so not tecnically untrue..) and I am sans Bell. Yesterday turned into quite the adventure. So we got to the staff entrance at 2300 as accorded on the telephone. No one. I wait 20 min. I call. "They will be there in twenty minutes okay!" It is dark, windy and cold.

Turns out, we have to give over the car to someone from the expo, since one cannot get in without accreditation. they take the car, It is going to be a minute. We wait with the man from the nepal pavillion. In conversation he let us know that the expo office have decided that no items should leave the area between the 1 and the 15 of september.

Eh? Why are we here then??

So at 0040 we get the car back. The man had loaded the bell in, so at least there is space, but at a security checkpoint they told him to go back and unload the car please. (the expo is guarded like a fortress.)

????

We will try again next week. With more clothes on. And maybe a termos with something hot in and a chair and a picknick basket..
