Day 5 Namche to Debuche

After we had breakfast in Namche Bazzar we gotour gear ready and started on our trek tid e, Suresh, told us the trail to Tengboche. the trail has about a lion steps that were hand made a very long time ago. Our Lead Guide, Suresh! , told us the trail was going to be easy haha! He always tries to help us realize that we can do like it. He said it was gradual, ho no. I felt like I was climbing to hi River Kosheaven, straight up! We walked through some beautiful forests that followed the path of the Dudh KoshiRiver. We stopped for a break in Phuki Theng. we h a small settlement with a couple of teahouses and a small army post. We were hoping thet trail would get easier but it didn't, it actually got steeper. We had a very slow pace up the mountain. We all made it. The views were beautiful and the majesty of the mountains made the effort well worth the trek.

Once we reached Tengboche we found there were no rooms available and had to make a decision to keep moving. Our Amsst. Guide, Pradeep, left our group earlier and found us a room in Debuche at the Rivendell Lodge. Here it costs .28 cents a minute for Internet access, to charge your battery $2.00, a shower costs, $5.00 and a towel will run you $125.

All in all another Great Day in our trek to the Mt. Everest Base Camp. One look at these mountains and all the tough hiking, unique customs, and hard work make it all well worth the time, After all, We are in the Himalayas, right? Well, as alway, NAMESTE!

Sorry for typos as I have to use their computer and it reallly suckos! u pictures as the speed is ultra SLOW, maybe tomorrow!
