Internet issues

Omg. The internet is so frustrating. It starts to post then doesn’t…Ugg

We did a 2 hour hike today doesn’t sound like much but at 14000ft it is! About 1000 feet. So every 1000ft of elevation you should acclimate a day. I thought that meant rest but it means stay at the altitude and do a hike up a little higher. We had breakfast before and lunch after then I strolled down to the 4410 cafe. That is our altitude in meters. Had some tea and electrolyte water and a delicious brownie like thing. Then back to the Tea house to sit out side and read.

It’s about 45-50 degrees in the day and should be for the rest of my trip. The snow is melting. Nights are cold. Last night was 17 degrees F.

Tomorrow we have a six hour day, Hike back up then a long down then ups and downs and then a steep up. The accommodations will be pretty rustic with no running water limited electricity. In this tea house, no heat, the electricity in the room is on 5 pm til 7 am. No water in the night. Everything is solar.

It has been luxurious staying at the same tea house for two nights. What would be better is washing my hair! I feel like I just had a Brazilian blowout. That braid idea was a waste of time! How about a haircut in Kathmandu!

I decided to shorten my days and helicopter out after the photo op at EBC. I know that I will be done by then! So Lobouche tomorrow and Gorek Shep the next day, possibly two days. Better to go to EBC in the morning.

Photos and videos when I get to Kathmandu!
