After a day’s rest yesterday resumed the trek today. We’re getting deep into the mountains now. Weather was good. Deep blue skies. Morning was a relatively easy trek. After lunch however a huge upwards trek. I guess we gained 300m over the next hour. And then as it flattened out we arrived at the Everest memorial for those who have died here. There are a lot of memorials.
After that the ground levelled off and after another couple of hours we arrived in Lobuche. The tea house we’re staying in even had a hot shower at the cost of 1000 Nepalese rupees (about £5). It’s been about four or five days since my last one and it’s doing my hairstyle no good at all so I decided to take advantage. It was so good. Best shower ever.
Tomorrow we head on to base camp so we have an early start hence my typing this on bed at 8.00pm.
There’s a guy who works here who has a Spurs flag over the entrance to the dining room. Poor boy.Leer más
