- Marriage(A Card Game) Begins (Bipin, Bikash, Bhanu, Prashanna, Shankar)… rooms for other members was already fixed except us(Bikash, Bipin, Rabi Sir & Me) & we were lacking a single room so open Sleeping place was managed for 4 of Us in front of the counter. After few minutes bed was ready.

Oct 23 @ 11:00 PM
- Marriage still Continue.. Rabi sir & me already in the bed… After few minutes 4 boys arrived at hotel, stayed in the table, Ordered Drinks (Local ठर्रा)… the hotel staff served it in ‘Signature’s Bottle… Boys started drinking, Time passes by… everything was going fine…

After nearly an hour…

I woke up with the sound of cracking glass… as the effect of drinks increases, one from those 4 boys hit the glass on the floor in his anger… they were friends but from then onwards they started speech fighting…

Oct 24 @ 00:15 AM
- Rabi sir went to the upstairs room so I was sleeping alone covering till half of the head because it was too cold… They were still making loud noises and frens still playing cards…

After 10 to 15 minutes…

I was half asleep facing my face to the bed… a terrific sound came… that was the sound of a breaking bottle… the boy who cracked the glass earlier again hit the Bottle of Signature in the wall in the side of our bed… TERROR! TERROR!! TERROR!!! Our bed was full of the broken bottle pieces & some bad smell… as I was sleeping there those pieces hit my head also… I woke up suddenly … I removed small pieces of glass from my hand & without making further delay I took my cell phone from bed & went to the bathroom. I cleaned my head… Thanks God!!! Those broken materials just hit my hair… nothing wrong inside… I came out of the bathroom & directly went to the friend’s room & told that entire terrific story… Other frens who were playing cards also left that terrific room & went to another room… There was no sleep in my eye… Only after few hours I made sleep & so do my frens…

- Left that Lodge… went to the bus park kept all bag packs there and had tea in nearby tea shop. Then we all went to Custom office to get one day pass to enter in Khasha, China. We filled the form & queued to get the stamp on the form…

Oct 24 @ 08:10 AM
- We got the one day Visa. Then Mission China Begins…

Oct 24 @ 08:15 AM
- We entered to China showing Citizenship card & stamped form through ‘Miteri Pul’ (Friendship Bride – Bridge which joins Nepal & China). We managed a vehicle just to visit main Khasha Bazzar which was approximately 10 Km far from ‘Miteri Pull’ it wasn’t our shopping destination.

Oct 24 @ 08:50 AM
- We reached our destination . We started roaming around. We were too early so shops were not yet opened. We had light breakfast, bakery items which were good but contain too much sugar. All things (Clothes, Cell phone, Laptop etc.) in the shops were branded and were too much expensive.

Oct 24 @ 11:00 AM
- We came back. There was a Market at around 500m distance from Miteri Pul, It was so called supermarket (I forget the name) but nothing different from Bhrikuti-Mandap. Ktm’s China Town Supermarket is far better than that. All started shopping as they need. I didn’t found anything attractive there and realized, ‘Khasha is not a shopping destination, its just a Blanket destination’.

Oct 24 @ 01:00 PM
- All shopping were finished, we came back to Nepal, had some foods and begin the tour ‘Back to Ktm’. After few minutes we stopped at ‘Tatopani – place where we can get natural Hot Water’. We just washed our face & get started again.

Oct 24 @ 08:00 PM
- Entered to own place.

Tension, before starting…
Terror, at Night
&
Not what I had expected, while shopping.

रमाईलो देउसी !!!

Nepal – My Country, My Heaven

A man from Nepal, decided to write a book about holy places around the World. He decided to start from foreign. He started by flying to various holy places. Going to the USA, he began taking photographs and making notes. He spotted a golden telephone on the wall and was intrigued with a sign which read “1000 $ /Minute”, Seeking out the religious Guru he asked about the phone. The Guru answered that this golden phone was, in-fact, a direct line to Heaven and if he paid the price he could talk directly to God. The man thanked the Guru and continued on his way. As he continued to visit the holy places in USA, Egypt, Israel, Germany,  Other European Countries, Japan,  Australia, China, India etc., all around the world, he found more phones, with the same sign and price, and got the same answer from each Guru. Finally, he arrived in his Own Country-NEPAL. Upon entering a temple, behold, He saw the usual golden Telephone. But THIS time, the sign read “Calls: 1.25 Rupees/Minute”, Fascinated, he asked the Guru. “Guru Ji, I have been in Places all across the World, and in each Place I have found this golden telephone and have been told it was a direct line to Heaven and that I could talk to God, but, in the other temples the cost was 1000 $ a minute. Your sign reads just 1.25 Rupees/Minute. Why? ” – The Guru, smiling, replied, “Son, you’re in Nepal now. This is God’s Own Country… and it’s a local call… :) … Welcome to Nepal ! the land of GOD !! the Heaven !!!
