Butwal, Nepal

Yes I am now back in Nepal and this time it is for the actual festival that we have been planning for last three months. I arrived in Butwal at 1am after a looooonnnngggg journey on which every flight that could be delayed was... and because my last leg was 4 hours late there were no seats on any of the domestic flights. I had to jump in to a cab and head towards the bus station in hope that there was a bus for Butwal. And there was. We left the capital at 430pm and arrived at around 1230am. Because of the darkness at the time of my arrival I got of the bus over 2km from my hotel and had a good night stroll through empty streets. Upon arriving at the hotel my dear brother and coworker from India, Asokan, met me at the gate and we found a street vendor that served us one of the best omelet sandwiches I have ever had....

It has been a lot of work but it seems like the committee here on the ground have been able to get everything together. There is excitement among the planning committee and members and now all we can do is pray that God draws a crowd of people.

Tomorrow is a nationwide BANDA! That means that the entire nation stands still because the opposition wants to put pressure on the government. I will be able to get some reading done and lay low. No vehicles are aloud to move around, and no business are aloud to be open...

Pray that everything works for the best!

C U soon!
