We had planned nothing for today, except to read a book and chill-out around the lake.

Wondering what would the local think..

Excellent place to Chill and read a book
This restaurant & hotel was under-renovation, but the hotel boss was kind enough to let us stay.
The boss used to work in Singapore and Malaysia for a short period (lamenting that working in Singapore was stressful), then he decided to come back to set up hotel on this plot of land owned by his family.
.
It was really nice - away from the main town with excellent view.
If I were to go back to Pokhara, I would definitely stay there.
In case you are interested too.

The ladies decided to chill-out and read their books, while I climbed the hill to see the World Peace Pagoda.

During the evening, we were invited to Raju's (Our Pokhara Guide also AY's Father's friend) home for dinner.
Raju's Dad was sharing with us his medals and items from the Indian Army.

The experience of eating at local's house is great.
Good to learn more about their living conditions
