It’s Anita’s birthday today so we all signed a post card and gave it to her.
I had the best jam for breakfast. It’s was red so presumably it was a berry but it was straight up bubblegum flavored. Delish!
Today was another acclimatization day so we didn’t have to pack up our big duffels huzzah! Our shit is everywhere 😅😅

Getting water organized is way harder the higher you go.

Off we went for another fun climb. 😂
We went from 14,400ft to 16,100ft in 2 hours.

Today was hard. Had real issues breathing but not only that it was really cold but we were simultaneously also overheating. And then came the rain which made the whole experience quite miserable you normally do it for the views but there were none 😂
Still in the damn cloud. Bit annoying, hopefully it does clear up.

Me, Will and Anita went extra slow today.

We were all fucking dying and our bloody Sherpa guide was so UNCHALLENGED he was clipping his fucking nails as he walked.
I was busy hyperventilating. Maybe I’ll clip them next time 🙄

Soooooo happy when we reached the top. We stayed there for about 20 mins and got some
Pics.
And back down we went.
Ahhh,much better haha.

We saw a vulture on the way which was cool.

We have had our lunch and our daily nap. Have to pack our duffels tonight 😩

Went down for dinner. Because it’s Anita’s birthday the sherpas organized a cake and present for her (beanie) they also each presented her with a traditional silk scarf thingo.

The sherpas put tiger balm on our temples and noses to help with our colds and Anita goes:

“They have banned that is some places actually because it’s made from real tiger”

I can’t.

How is she a person.
Like, I like her but man is she painful!

I’m not very hungry atm but trying to make myself eat.
Decided to pack tomorrow morning which I will absolutely regret but can’t really do now cause my sleeping bag is out.Read more
