Trekking to Mt Everest Base Camp

Yak, and below can make out the black peak an inch from Eb's head to be Everest















Flying out of Madrid, our next stop was New Dehli, and when we arrived there jetlagged and feeling a little worse for wear, were clearly not ready for what India was going to throw at us. Within 24 hrs we had come up with a new game plan, fly to Kathmandu, Nepal, and do a 14 day trek to Everest Base Camp.

In no time, we were flying from Kathmandu to the village of Lukla in the depths of the Himalayan mountains, packs ready to go, accompanied by an Indian born, Nepalese resident guide named Prekash.

Over the next 9 days we ascended through the mountains, staying at tea houses along the way, to the closest village to Base Camp called Gorak Shep. The photo of the case above is apparently of a Yeti skull, held inside one of the monestaries along the way. The photo with both of us standing either side of a statue is at the Sir Edmund Hillary school, the rest all speak for themselves, nature n that.
