Birethanti (1025m)

Today was our last day of actual trekking. Part of me was happy to stop walking, but mostly, I was already starting to miss the mountains. I missed the simplicity of the villages on the other side of the pass. There was no big road so it was less traveled, and inevitably simpler.

It was a short 3 hour walk to the bus in Birethanti. We bought some oranges (two for 5 NPR) and devoured them. It was so nice to have fresh cold fruit again! The dog from Marpha walked with us to the bus and then disappeared. I hope he found another group of trekkers to keep company!
