Adrian and the guides have agreed to give us 1 hour extra
sleep this morning as it’s a rest day.
We wake up to 15Cm of snow on the ground which meant my plan
of doing some washing was somewhat compromised.
However, soon the sun comes out and melts all of the snow
and I manage to do the washing and have a shave.
Nothing to do all day, so I decided to walk to the top of
the ridge overlooking the village, only a 100m ascent, but rewarded with nice
views of the village and the surrounding mountains.
In the evening debrief, Adrian
pointed out “Enjoy your last night in a bed for a while, as from Lobuche
onwards, we’re in tents”. The good news is though, that from now, we will have
a tent each, so we get our privacy back.
Personally, I didn’t mind, as it’s a good way to get to know
people and how they behave. This can be important for later on, on the
mountain, to choose a sensible tent mate (no snoring, organized, easy going and
strong mentally).
