Chitwan, Nepal 8/4/08

Moved down to Chitwan for a visit to the National Park. It is very tropical here, not at all like we imagined it. It is at least 35 degrees and very humid. The town is quite small, very quiet and laid back and very pretty.

Just before we went to bed, David found an enormous black spider in our room which moved like a rocket! It was about the side of Davids palm and was very ugly and hairy. David did try to catch him in a glass (whilst I cowered on the bed) but failed so tried to bash him with his shoe but the spider was just too quick. In the end he disappeared and we convinced ourselves that he had fled through the open window. However, in the morning we discovered that he had spent the night hiding behind Davids trousers that were hanging on the wall. Urgghhh!
