Oh Nepal

A quick update folks, Nepal has been shit for the last several days, my laptop and belongings, bag, etc, were taken at Kukuri point from my friend Zeid, he is safe and unhurt and that is the most important thing. I've spent the last several days running about trying to catch/entrap the thieves that can't do much with a password protected computer, they did agree to trade it back for considerably more money than I have/had, so we involved the Crime Investigation Department, Nepal's plainclothes police unit, and through much miscommunication on their part they were highly ineffective, but through Zeid and myself directing their actions we managed to get somewhere till part way through the sting operation they first drove a big white jeep up to us, then secondly approached us to ask what they should do they spooked the robbers, the second day of the robbers talking to us proved equally fruitless, and today no word, other than that, sad that much of my saved life has vanished but happy that no one was hurt, it certainly is a time of change.
