Another night in Biratnagar, the same hotel and I had a good night sleep. The next morning started with meet ups (oldies friends) in and around Biratnagar including their ex work place, UN house. We then headed our way back. The next pit was Koshi barrage, also known as Koshi Tapu. Koshi is the largest river of Nepal and Koshi barrage is a flood control sluice across the Koshi river, near Nepal-India border. It has 52 gates altogether and are controlled by Indian officers although it is in Nepal. Koshi Tapu Wildlife Reserve is popular for bird watching, arna -wild water buffalo (we spotted many) and fresh water dolphin. One more time, they were old time stories from the oldies on how they used to spend hours in Koshi Tapu and the fun they used to have after work. Prakash uncle was full on with his camera capturing Koshi river and the surrounds. I did too. Unfortunately, I've lost them all (syncing problem) but here's couple of videos on stop by-s.
1:Banana bargain at Bhatabari, apparently famous for banana.
2: Fish farming next to the highway. I forgot the name of the place but it was pretty warm, couldn't stay out much longer.
