• Yes! The helicopter arrived

    12 oktober 2023, Nepal ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C

    We got up to a nice clear morning and waited for helicopter news.
    It was a very chilly day - possibly about minus 5 and I made sure ALLE was staying nice and warm.
    We got news that the choppers were flying but had to wait our turn as they were very busy.
    We went down to the helipad and waited in the sunshine trying to thaw out a bit.
    We finally got news that our chopper was on its way and we were all good to go.
    ALLE was pretty excited for the flight and I had him tucked safely in my jacket.
    The flight was so beautiful- such incredible views of the mountains and the track we had walked along.
    We got into Lukla and had never seen it so busy. There were planes and choppers coming and going and people everywhere.
    In the afternoon we wandered down the Main Street to a coffee shop where we sat and watched the airport action from the balcony. Sandesh and Alle had some fun scaring the coffee waitress- cheeky boys!!
    It’s a lot warmer in Lukla about 4 degrees so had a much more cosy sleep.
