Rest day = game day

We're getting close to Lukla, from where we will fly out in 2 days. We had only 1.5 hours today and hiking in lower altitudes is getting easier and easier. Namche has great cafes, bakeries and tons and tons of shopping for trekking and ice climbing.

So since we had a rest day in Namche, we introduced the "rest day game". It went as follows: whoever can fill the list of tasks first, wins. The 15 tasks included things like these:
- give out 5 handshakes
- take 5 pictures with strangers
- eat something you've never eaten before
- ask for the next bus stop (which is 5 days walking away :) )
- tell someone they have a beautiful nose
- learn "I have to pee really badly" in a foreign language
- and the joker: find a Canadian

Needless to say, we had an entertaining day! The list isn't all filled, but I'm sure we can finish it tomorrow!Read more
