We are currently Day 9 of our adventuure holiday in the wonderful Himalayas and thought I’d share with you my Facebook updates so far. I’m currently sending this out to all of you from Namche Bazar, a quaint but very busy, touristy place lying about 3,440m above sea level. Yes, we are high up and we have internet! Isn’t that awesome? Anyway, since they charge an arm and a leg for this kind of connectivity up here, just thought i’d share with you some of my Facebook updates so far –
Posted March 29 at 6:10pm: Day 2 of our Himalayan Trek and we’re here at Namche Bazar at 3,440m – the highest elevation we’ve ever climbed in our lifetime! such a nice surprise to stop over in the commercial center of khumbu region – we even have internet! amazing! 8 more days of trekking to go 
Posted March 30 at 5:30pm: Day 3 of our Himalayan Trek is the most interesting so far! Day started out sunny, then windy, then cloudy then finally – snowy! Chin (my friend( and I were trekking in the winter wonderland that is the Himalayas on our half-pants! Mr. Rono not coping well with the altitude and had to stay behind in Namche Bazar. Highest altitude reached today – 3,720m!
Posted April 5, 6:44pm: Day 9 of our Himalayan Trek and we’re back in Namche Bazar after 10++ hours of walking today all the way from Machermo. We did it! Mr. Rono and I trekked all the way to Gokyo Ri – our personal best at 5360m! I’m so proud of my hunny for beating the odds – altitude sickness, mental stress, physical fatigue – to be with me til the last leg! Aww…I love the Himalayas (and I think the mountains love me! :p)
It will take us about 2-3 days to get back to Kathmandu. I’m so looking forward to get back to the city comforts, to my laptop and to a serious dose of pampering!
