Well the phone lines were only cut off for a short time and it really didn’t cause us any problems at all. Yesterday the King called a curfew for central Kathmandu. This meant that no one could leave their home until 6pm. Tentions are building here as the elections are coming on the 8th of February. The King is forcing the elections and the political parties are protesting. Yesterday over 70? party members were arrested.

In just an hour or so we will be heading to the edge of the valley to spend the night at Nagarkot. This is the best place to view the Himalayas in all their beauty. Miss you all and hope to hear from you soon.
