Day 62 - Kathmandu, Nepal. Submitting Indian Visa Paperwork, Attempt No.2

Indian Visa Paperwork Application, Attempt No.2

With new paperwork containing less information and renewed determination we set off for the embassy again. We arrived half an hour later than we did the previous day, but we had our numbers called instantly so there was no wait. To our relief the paperwork today was accepted and we made payment for our Visa's. That is step 1 done, we were asked to leave contact details for our hotel and to not go too far from Kathmandu, incase the embassy needed to contact us for more information or to come in for our interview earlier. Our next appointment is in 6 days time.

After the embassy we arrived back in Thamel after lunch and decided to get a Kebab for lunch. I only mention this because it is the best Kebab both of us have ever eaten, ever!  A combination of Felafel, tahini, hummus, potato chips, marinated eggplant, chilli and fresh vegetables. I am determined to mimic this recipe when we get home. While staying in Thamel we eat kebabs from this place 5 times in 1 week. We make further arrangements with our hotel to stay longer, which involves asking for a better room where the Wifi signal reaches & hot water comes through the taps, we are moved to another, nicer room 2 storeys up with both of those things.

The afternoon is spent at a place called electric pagoda. They have a cocktail happy hour from 2 - 6pm, a beautiful garden with various seating options including floor cushions, psychedelic art, free board games, relaxing music and 4  cats that they look after.
