Nepal Maoists extend ceasefire
Just in time for high season! However, please note that although they have extended the cease-fire, they are still hitting up trekkers who arrive in Lukla (en route to EBC) for 2500NRS each (about $30) and lesser fees in many other places. Essentially, the country now has 2 governments, and the Maoists control about 80% of the country. That doesn't mean it's unsafe for tourists, just be prepared to fork out cash at the checkpoints.

Fire cheese to the tourists
