EBC

We arrived in Gorekshep at around 3:30 but we were too tired to trek up kala patar to see views of Everest. We rested. my sister was also not feeling well. She had the chills and was really tired. It was not as cold in Gorekshep was we thought it would be. We hung out in the main dining room and chatted with people we had met along the trek. At around 8:00 my mom and I went outside to look at the stars over the mountains and took some photos. The people we had met got a really cool one of my mom and me. My sister was still not feeling well. She had about 6 people in the lodge looking after her and asking my dad what her symptoms were. We were told that she had a fever, even though she didn't but that she did not have any symptoms of altitude. We thought that maybe she wasn't feeling well because my parents had given her an adult dosage of diamox, a type of medication that helps with altitude symptoms. We all went to bed at around 9:00. We had one room with two beds, but it was pretty warm.

During the middle of the night my dad wasn't feeling great and he decided that he was not able to hike up to EBC with me. I was really upset about that. Because the views of Everest are really good from kala patar, my parents decided that we would leave at 6:00 with all of us. My mom and I made it up to the first view point, however, my sister was not feeling really great, so my dad took her back to our room. When we got back to the lodge at 7:00 we had breakfast, but none of us was really hungry. My sister was still not feeling great.Meer informatie
