day 9
This
morning we left well rested, charged up, relatively clean and happy. The
surroundings/views are getting more spectacular. We past the path to and from
Lukla, which means we will encounter tourists, since this little town has an
airstrip for planes. The prices are higher and more goodies are available –
very tempting…..especially after a night in a cave, but who wants to carry more
and – anyways- we are on a $10 a day budget. Today we are climbing up to Namche
Bazaar at 3500m.
