Kathmandu is about a kilometre above sea level and there's a definite nip in the air, especially noticeable when you've been sweltering in India for a few weeks.
We're planning to do some hardcore hiking while here and without the right gear there's a chance this could become more of an ordeal than a pleasure. Fortunately, the enterprising Nepalese have ripped off every reputable outdoor clothing manufacturer known to mankind. So we tog ourselves up with four hundred quid's worth of North Face clobber and haggle the price down to a fifth of that for the privilege.
Quite novel this cool mountain air mind, we're loving it already.
