So we had our first ride in a twin engine turbo prop plane. This made me a bit nervous until I saw the name of our airline and the airport (see picture) it was a great flight with incredible views of the Himilayas.

We traveled to Lumbini because it was were the Buddha was born and the exact spot is within the giant Lumbini Gardens, it was beautiful and peaceful there. when you go inside you see where the Buddha was born and then they have Buddhist temples form all over the world all set back on ther own property and you can visit them all it was amazing. First we got on a bicycle rickshaw been then we decided to come back later and rent some bikes. we had the best time ever riding bikes, I felt like a kid again on these high old awkward bikes. In fact we rented the bikes three more times
