up in namche, white morning...

up in namche now gang.... gotta pretty darn impressive storm last nite, complete w/ lightnin n thunder.. dumped bout 4 inches uv fresh fluffy on us, making tha decision to stay another nite a no brainer (the chance to connect via skype n email, plus the heavenly yak cheese pizzas at the everest bakery had me leanin pretty heavily that way already). ;-)





i've met up w/ some cool catz from seattle and germany, henry and nicolae', n we've enjoyed gorgin on the good food and takin in the strange vibe that is namche bazaar together... (think jetsetters from all over the planet, just fresh off the plane from lukla (via katmandu), here to "see everest", live big, and not really soak in the cultural beauty uv nepal... this combined w/ really loud western muzic, spectacular himalayan views, and pricez 10 x what one finds in rural trekking areas are the norm.... it is aptly named- Bazaar indeed! :-) nonethalezz, i'll gorge on more pizza a fresh baked goodz today, do some people watchin, and head up twd gokyo, via renjo pass tamara...
probably won't see another soul up there for a few days, balancing it all out.












till when-bistare janu ramroho.... (it is good to go slowly)....especially at 5000M! ;-)
