Today we hiked from Monjo to Namche. The trail is turns steeply upwards as it nears Namche and its the first real test for everyone. We all made it to Namche, but a special mention should go to Charlotte. She woke up feeling sick and did the hike today with brief pauses to throw up! Unable to keep anything down she also did it without food or water.
Namche is the biggest village in the Khumbu region and is full of trekkers, locals, yaks and Tibetans. It’s a wonderful place, made even better by the lodge that we stay at: The Zamling Guest House is very comfortable and the food is great. We will spend two night’s here acclimatizing. It will give Charlotte a chance to recover from her stomach bug.
