NEPAL: Rafting & Paragliding!

So we've been in the south of Thailand for 3 weeks now and have been enjoying the beach so much that we've slacked on our blog entries! We went on a 3 day 2 night rafting trip down the Kali Gandaki. The first day we had a class 3 and class 4 rapid....one of which I lost my sandal and went the balance of the trip barefoot. At night we camped on beaches along the river (tents, portable toilet, gourmet meals of spaghetti (nepali style), bonfires, and sand recliners). The second day was by far the best. Continuous rapids and beautiful weather (a few waterfalls too!). We didn't take that many pics because we were too busy rafting!!

Paragliding was an adventure we did for Kyle's belated bday present from his parents and Aunt & Uncle. We had great views of the lake and Pokhara from the air! We also flew along side some eagles. Really fun and really beautiful. We have videos from the flight that we'll post later on!
