Sunday, 25 April 2010: A quick update from Kathmandu. We have all arrived safely and we’re now doing our last bit of shopping for gear and whatever else we feel capable of carrying up the mountain with us. Kathmandu is CRAZY! We had an awesome dinner last night at the Northfields Cafe in Thamel. We are going to the airport early tomorrow morning to try and catch a flight to Lukla. I really hope the weather is favourable and that we get off the ground nice and early.
P.S. to my post above: DO NOT order the “Base Camp” cocktail at the Tom & Jerry Pub in Thamel >_<
all the best Pete, Dani and co! we look fwd to some good pictures. Alex and Juanita
Thanks for info. We will give Tom & Jerry Cocktail a miss.
We look forward to hearing about your progress.Hope you have an amazing time.Will be thinking of you every step of the way.
Hello hope you get this. Good luck and have fun and thanks for the message on the blog.
Good luck to the geezers. Enjoy your flight today. Clinton, Nicky and rug rats
We guess the flight to LUKLA was successful.Enjoy the hike.
Hello Sean. Thinking of you up there while I sit in front of my computer struggling over boring things down here. Your Blog is giving me lots of vicarious pleasure. Go well. Love, as always, Tish
Hey Seano – missing you at the dices – and the grading race on Sunday – get your ass back here and stop this mountain meandering! (Just envious – it sounds pretty wonderous where you guys are!) – Pete/Hot Mix
