Who would have thought there would be a 13 metre high climbing wall right in the heart of Thamel? We made friends with the local climbers, (here we see our instructor colleague Lapke Sherpa on a 6b wall climb) and all headed over to the Ramshackle Blues Bar for some live music and refreshments. A great day full of surprises. Doctor Kulesh Thapa was a trul excellent first aid teacher; most refreshing! So far the quality of teaching provision in Nepal seems pretty good, though the outdoors component that starts tomorrow will be vital.
