Last Days – Flight from Lukla and Back In Kathmandu 15th Oct 2014

We got up in the morning to beautiful clear skies again but only to hear that the Kathmandu (Tribhuvan) Airport have been closed down due to excessive fog.  This is not unusual and so we ended up waiting a few hours for the planes to start arriving.

Once the planes started to come through the airport staff and airlines turned around the flights pretty quickly and the backlog was cleared fairly quickly.

Back to the bustling city of Kathmandu (elev. 1350m) was a bit of a difference to the beautiful tranquility and majestic views mother nature had put before us over the last several weeks.
