Today is probably going to be the our best day yet. We are going to go sky diving out of a plane. Its about 7:00am and where are ready to go and get on that plane. They tell us in advance to wear light cloths under our suits we are going to wear for sky diving. We get a taxi to take us to the airport where we get on a small plane, holds about 6 people, and we take to the sky. I look out the window of the plane and we are just above the clouds. The instructor is telling us about where to find our back up parachute is incase our main one doesn't work. We are about 5 minuets out from our drop zone and my nerves are just going insane. We have finally reached our drop zone. Our instructor opens the side door and pushes me out and I'm falling and I look up and my instructor is right next to me. We fall for about 1 minuets and then he says pull the rope, so i pull it and the parachute comes out and now I'm just floating in mid air. You can see the whole city from up their. We start to glide to the open fields to the east of the city where we land safely.

Today we are just going to go around the city of Kathmandu. When we leave our hotel we start to walk to bus station and we see this nice little restaurant where we sit down and get some coffee, this isn't your coffee that you get at Starbucks back in the U.S.A, this coffee is a lot thicker and stronger. After we are done at that place we head to the bus station where we go and get on a bus and head to the another side of Kathmandu. This the richer part of the city, many people on this side of the city have nice houses and can afford nice cars. This part of the city has a lot of nice restaurants and they cost way more than the other ones on the other side of the city. So we spend the whole day on that side of the city and then it's about 9:00 at night and we take the last bus back to our hotel.

Today were are going to the Bardia national park. It has a very good rating and people always say that you are bound to see wildlife. After a long bus ride to get to the park we go inside to meet our instructors for this wildlife experience. We get in a jeep, there are about 5 of us in the jeep. We take a nice drive on the road to the front gate of the park. We enter and the road becomes really bumpy. We come to our first spot of wildlife and we see 4 big old vulchers. We stay and watch them for ten minuets and then they fly away in the sky so high. We come the river were we see elephants in the water spraying one another to keep cool. Then we see a rhino jump in the water. we continue with our trip for the next 5 hours and its almost sun down and we are heading back to the front gate of the park and we hear this roar, so we go to the river were we see one of the rarest sights in all the park, a big male tiger drinking from the water. Once we saw the tiger the instructor said not to make any noise so it doesn't scare the tiger away, so we watched and take pictures for the next 7-8 minuets then the tiger disapears in the thick brush.

Every one knows what Time square is, but do u know what Durbar Square is. When i visited Durbar Square it reminded me about Time Square in New York city, Lights every where. I went to Durbar square at about 5:00 Pm, Every one hear eating good food, and singing with the street performers. Once the sun goes down thats when the real party starts. All the lights turn on and the music gets louder and more people show. There are usually no fights or problems, every one does there own thing and there are all so nice. The only thing I had trouble on is  there language. Most people there aren't educated very well so its hard to understand them. I went to a restaurant to get something to eat. I got a table right next to the window so I could see the that action that was going on outside. I ordered Dal-Bhat-Tarkair with some white rice. After I was done with my meal I went and walk around some more, just looking at the lights and then when you look up in the sky all you see is a sky full of stars.
