Today we started at 7 after a very hearty breakfast. The trail today was through the forest and it was beautiful. The initial 8 kms were brutal with rolling hills. It took a lot of toll on our feet today. We are following the Budhi Gandaki river itself.

I was surprised when I woke up at 6:30 today without any help. I find myself looking at niranjan who is doing something with his bag already. Today was going to be a long day, so I woke up and cleaned up.
