Kathmandu

We've been in kathmandu for a little over a day now and we love it. This place is full of great energy and great people. On top of that iv been waiting for a long time to do some shopping! Like a child in a toy store Iv Purchased some new hiking gear. A - 10 degrees Celsius sleeping bag, jacket, gloves, hat, poles, thermal pants and shirt, and other small little hiking gadgets. We bought a map, and a flight to lukhkla on top of that to start our journey towards everest base camp. It should take around 8-10 days to reach base camp, and afterwards were planning on taking the long way back through Gokyo. I'm beyond holding in my excitement. the trek will take somewhere over 20 days to complete. It'll be a long journey, but it will be a beautiful one taking us as high as 5800 meters. Our flight to lukhkla is tomorrow morning at 6am, which will take us through some of the most beautiful views of everest and Lhoste. Internet will be a scarce commodity so this may be my last post until we're back.
