12 May 2014 - Pokhara to Tatopani

We came to know that our flight which was scheduled to depart at 6.50 A.m was diverted for a chartered trip and another flight had a technical flaw and could not fly. No official information was given regarding the time of departure and we were informed that the technical flaw would be set right and we could fly to jomsom. Mr. Suresh felt that the flight would be cancelled as there would be heavy winds at Jomsom after 10 A.M. As i had brought my aged parents and in-laws, I somehow wanted to visit Muktinath and conveyed my intention to Mr. Suresh and asked him to make alternative arrangements for travel by road. Mr. Suresh had arranged two jeeps, but, later Tara airlines had informed departure of our flight by 10 a.m and we were given boarding passes. So we cancelled the jeeps. When we were ready to board the flight, again we were informed that the flight was cancelled. It was 10.45 A.m by then and we got tensed. Mr. Suresh again booked the jeeps, namely, land cruisers which can travel directly to muktinath. our entire program was re-scheduled and flight tickets were booked accordingly. After some delay we boarded the jeeps to muktinath. The roads were terribly bad and it was a very tough journey. since it was 9 P.m we could not travel further and we were given rooms at Tatopani. At night time we could not see around and just had dinner and slept, being very tired.
