Restaurant at our Domestic airport has interesting menu. I had never seen a restaurant (of course in Nepal) with a menu that has price in paisas. We have stopped using denominations in paisas and no one puts their price at paisas especially restaurants. I paid Rs. 128.76 and also 13% VAT and 10% service charge for 50 Rs. 500 ml  pet coke. See yourself if you don’t believe such thig do exist, have look yourself.

Another interesting this also happened at Airport. For the first time while purchasing Airport tax, i was refunded 50 paisas. Airport tax is Rs. 169.50 but they always took Rs. 170. Don’t know what happened today, the guy at counter returned back my 50 paisas (2 coins of 25 paisas each), the one with King Birendra’s name on it. I don’t know why but I became happy

Our flight was supposed to be at 12.30 PM but they didn’t make any announcement though it was 12.50 PM. I asked the ground crew of Buddha Air inquiring about the flight time and i got shocking answer, The ground crew curtly told me that the flight isn’t at 12.30 but at 1.20 PM. I was aghast at her response. Okay, we waited till 1.30 but again no formal announcement was made. So we went to have coke and came back at 3 and suddenly they were saying it’s flight time, flight time. Still there was no formal announcement. Few girls were furious at airlines saying they are worse and they should have boarded bus rather than plane. Buddha air, please make announcement. Are you listening?

Finally we landed at Simara airport and straightly headed to Amalekhgunj, a place at Bara district to attend a cultural program. The program was organized to raise awareness on Democracy and Human Rights. Intense lok dohori was going on. The girls were giving tough competition to boys. Finally boys won the competition by mere 0.5 points (as declared by judging committee). Few pictures of the event. (I will keep posting as my days pass on )
