Most are from my camera which is old and not very good as my phone died day 2 (and the photos I did take for some stupid reason didn't automatically upload to google photos). Big post.
View from my hostel window in kathmandu; birds circling the cool evening air in search of dinner:
The start of the hike in Besisahar:
Soccer pitch in Besisahar:
Beginning of Hike:
First clear view of the annapurna mountains! Me and my mate couldn't believe it!
Slightly more zoomed in :
Undulations of the road:
Great spot looking down to Bahundanda (first night's sleep although I could've walked much further):
The great Annapurna, lifting to their lofty peaks over the carpet of subtropical forest...
Vistas following the valley north to the mighty Annapurna mountains from our first guesthouse:
Bahundanda (slightly out of focus but it's a great view none the less):
Taking a side route (everyone else took the road):
The Misty Mountains:
Town:
Already on the afternoon of day 2 we were seeing snow nearby!
Getting close to Tal (1700m) around 28.4N:
