Up to Babare, Dolakha Nepal consisted of an 11 hours bus ride through various small towns into the mountains that required many stops and back ups to accomplish getting around bends on the very narrow gravel road. We were up at 5:30 am to catch the 6:30 bus.
This taxi was the slowest I had every been on! He kept cleaning the windows that left a residue of oil smeared on them and his head lights too low to see. My patience was wearing thin but we made it in time and met up with our other team members.
Nick Abraham from Australia brought two other members from “From the bottom Up” a building team and Rajan, I, Sandip and Simon were from ChangeforHope. The seven of us huddled in the cold bus and finally got to Babare when the sun had set and it was pitch black. Out came the flashlights and up we went through rice fields for about 30 min. Tired is not the word I could use to express how I felt but we made it and the young people cheered me on! Great team work and God was obviously wanting me there again!
