Later start this morning, walking at 7.30. Saw white mountains today beyond the incredibly steep sided valleys: Manaslu and Annupurna 2. Really happy to be back in the big snow capped mountains today.Read more
Lyndsay McDonnell You are not the only ones to see white mountains. From home we can see Ben Wyvis covered in snow although thankfully we have not had any!! Also the Cairngorms have had a fair amount. Lots of love Mom and Dad xxxx

Cold night as the water pipe had frozen and the temp in our room was 1 degree. Must be getting to higher altitudes as impromptu 'monkeys' and 'can can' dances on the trail! Took the high path optionRead more
Lyndsay McDonnell Fantastic photos! I know you two can cope with the low temperatures but not my idea of fun. More cakes but after an eight hour trek with climbing I should think you deserved it!! Take care lots of love Mom and Dad xxxx
Tom Ralph You guys above the trees wonderful views live Tom and Lynda , keep safe high up

Lyndsay McDonnell Love all the wonderful photos. The cinema looks very interesting - hope you enjoyed the film and the halftime treats. Back to trekking tomorrow - take care lots of love Mom and Dad xxxx
It was great to read your up date today. So glad to hear that you got a lie in! Apparently we are experiencing an arctic blast here! No snow but a very chilly night for a firework party! Keep safe love Gem x

Short morning walk through a landscape of bare eroded hills in strong winds with a backdrop of snow-capped high peaks. Some beautiful villages with a very Tibetan feel about it in this Lower MustangRead more
Dave Warwick I like the sound of Yak Donalds. Not so much the butchers !......All sounds amazing though :-)

When we thought the trekking was nearly done we had non-stop walking uphill today from 7.30 til 4! The trail climbed all day through small hamlets (Ghara and Chitre) and terraced fields where theyRead more

What goes up must come down but first we had more steps to climb. Up at 5 to walk up Poon Hill for sunrise over the Annapurnas, Dhaulagiri and Machhapuchhare. Then we continued down a stone staircaseRead more
Lyndsay McDonnell Rather you than us with all the climbing up and down but I bet the climb to see the sunrise over the mountains was well worth it. Love Mom and Dad xx

Just a 1 hour walk today (where we saw a small crab on the path!) to Naya Pul before picking up a bus that took us to the lakeside town of Pokhara. As if we hadn't had enough exercise after 9 daysRead more
Lynda Ralph Got to keep going !!! Have fun & stay safe on the next stage 👍🚴🚴♀️🚶🚶♀️💤 xxx
Lyndsay McDonnell Trust you two to get on mountain bikes but can't believe that you were saddle sore!! Love Mom and Dad xxxx
James Miller It has been great fun following your blog and your exploits. Your rafting brought back happy memories of rafting on the Sun Kosi river back in autumn 2003. And believe it or not, I will be heading to Pokhara and the Poon Hill 5-day trek after Amit's wedding in Kathmandu on Friday 03 March. Amazing we should spend time together in Sri Lanka, then five months later I follow in your footsteps to Nepal. Cheers Jim
