Stats
Birethanti: 1,025m
Naya Pul: 1,070m
Ascent: 45m
Distance: 1km
On the final day of our trek, we hiked about 30 minutes from Birethanti to Naya Pul, where we tried unsuccessfully to hitchhike to Pokhara. Despite having no money at this point, we shared a cab with 4 Nepalis, not including the driver, in a compact car. We arrived in Pokhara, a.k.a. Heaven, and stayed for several days over New Years.

Beautiful Phewa Lake in Pokhara.
Parade for New Years.
Or more accurately, parade for tourists.
Dee and I say goodbye :(
Interestingly, she's still a trekker, whereas I've become a full-on hippie.
From Pokhara, Dee headed back to Kathmandu for a couple days, then went on to India for a week, and finally back home to Australia. I stayed in Pokhara to recover from New Years, then travelled to Bandipur and Chitwan National Park with two English guys we met on the trail. After returning to Kathmandu, I spent the next few months travelling through India, Thailand, and Burma, before heading back to Canada.
