We had a terrific night sitting around our lodge reflecting on the the last week. This group truly generates some laughter and several times tonight, we were each doubled over laughing aloud..!!
Glenn awoke this morning with a badly bleeding nose, which required some attention and care to stop. Probably the result of the dusty environment and the very cold dry air. It was a sight to see our head guide Mingma hand feeding Glenn his breakfast so that Glenn could manage the bleeding. Our Mingma is a true servant. Glenn recovered quickly and was fine by mid morning.
Our final trek day tomorrow has us dropping from Namche@3,500mts back into Lukla@2,900mts. It's a solid 22km day, so we will be aiming to start early. We have been invited to our customary visit and dinner at Neema and Mingma's house (just below Lukla). This has been such an honour for us over several years. We will then pay out, tip and farewell our wonderful porters. This is often an enjoyable but also an emotional time.
