More space travels

In Tatopani on the trek there was a Bob Marley bar who offered 'Space Bread' for sale. All Bob Marley bars have ganja foods. Seems to go with the name. Jo and I had passed as I was pretty much over that stuff since SE Asia. I had in fact only drunk a single night since leaving even.

But when we got back from biking round Pokhara we met one of our Israeli friends from the trek who had brought some back with him. He asked if we'd join him in eating it and as he'd asked for a little one, good for two people, we thought it'd be ok between three of us. Why not?

It started slow (as usual) but turned out to be quite strong. The bread itself was delicious! Like a doughnut but nicer. Without the weed it would be a real treat. We spent the night watching Pulp fiction (I remember very little) and it was a real nice mellow night in the end. And when eating dinner (we ate a lot!), every time I looked at Jo i could see he was gone and we'd have a good laugh. Was a good trip in that it came in waves. Lucid enough to think about what you were doing, then going into the deep end and then coming out again wondering what you'd just done (o;

These Belgian girls came and sat with our group for a bit too at some stage. They tried to engage us in conversation and as said, for a moment or two we'd be able to respond and then WHAM! we were off on our own little world tour again. they must have thought us quite weird, hahaha.

Jo and I both woke up remembering saying goodbye to people but not having a clue who had left - this turned out to be a bummer as we'd said bye to some guys we'd have liked to talk to a bit more. But we'll see them again no doubt. And yeah, we both had a good night with no bad consequences.

Probably enough for another month though. I'd say longer but let's be realistic. We are going to Europe. We are going to Holland. We are going to Amsterdam. We are going to get wasted.
