En route we saw some monkeys eating winter barley and had a stop to show our trekking permits and buy some fruit. We are at out start point at 1.30 ready for what Suba told us would be a 3 to 4 hour walk. Our route took us throughout the familiar and much developed Ghandrung village where we had lunch and into the wonderful rhododendron forests where we saw an impressive white headed monkey. However all the rhododendron flowers had gone here but later on they were in evidence. The route was quite busy with tourists of all nationalities, ages and sizes.
By 5 we had arrived at our destination of Tadapani (meaning far water 2,600 metres) which was very busy. We had a room booked for us which was ok but not the cleanest. At least we had a shower and a decent dhal bhat with a nice warm fire in the dining room. We were in bed by 8pm.
