We have been in Nepal now for almost 3 days. It is everything we had hoped for. Nice people, good food, cool weather (as compared to india) cheap-ish beer and lots to do. Having spent our days here exploring Kathmandu we have come to love the city and could spend forever walking its streets and eating at one the many delicious restaurants.
Alas, greater ambition calls us onward and upward. We are leaving tomorrow for a 15 day trek to the Mount Everest Base Camp, which is located at a staggering 17,090 ft above sea level. We will start at Lukla and spend the next 8 days reaching the base camp followed by a descent through the Chola Pass, which provides a different path back to Lukla. A detailed version of our trekking route can be found here.
We are excited to say the least. Wish us luck and read all about it here sometime after September 8th.
