Kathmandu to Koh Tao - Part 1

I woke up at 5am Thursday and sat in the lobby of my guesthouse, in the dark, with my headlamp on and used the wifi to pick my shifts and send off emails to my work (to ensure i'd get summer shifts), ate my bananas and peanut butter for breakfast and then walked out to the street at 6:30am and got a taxi to the airport for 350R. My first flight was short, only an hour and a bit, I chatted with my neighbors (a lady from Uruguay and a guy from India) and ate three fruit salads because the flight crew said the catering company didn't give them any gluten free food for me. We were late landing because the pilot couldn't land the first time because it was too windy, so happy I wasn't staying in Delhi - It looked stormy. I ran to my connecting flight (boarding call was 11:15am and my plane landed at 11:20am) and made it 5 minutes before the gates closed, hoping my luggage made it :S The second flight was longer, about four and a half hours and I actually got fed, real food! It had my name on it and was curry, salad,fruit and corn patty thing. Yup, I took a picture of it :)
