Questions of travel

Sitting in Kuala lumpa airport feeling like crap and wondering why we travel. Auckland yesterday was beautiful and balmy. Bry and I met some friends for lunch at Fish at the Hilton and spent 3 hours over a very lazy decadent lunch overlooking the harbour. Closer to departure time I started to stress. I would like to be at the airport 4 hours prior to flying but Brian likes about 4 minutes and why am I going anyhow? Matt and I lost Bry and ended up talking with a young American. She had spent the last year in .nz and was so excited by all the wonderful tramps she'd done she was literally jumping up and down with joy - why am I going to Nepal to tramp? After hugging her goodbye Matt and I were almost late boarding but here we are. And I spose fleeting but often intense relationships are common during travel - fun! Bry is currently looking for accommodation in Kathmandu. His is the do it yourself and plan as you go attitude to travel. I did remind him I'm not a backpacker anymore and we will see how I go with that. Anyhow enough musing,  hopefully more photos next time.
