Up into the mountains

So we were up and out of the hotel and to the airport by 7:00am to take advantage of the good weather for flying. If it is cloudy or windy they cannot fly.

The flight into the mountain airport of Lukla is totally insane and. Bit scary. There are videos online, but in short you basically land on the side of a mountain. YouTube it for all its glory.

We had a little tea and then we hiked up the mountain trails for about 4 hours and we are in a small village named Phakding.

Tomorrow we will go to a bigger town of Namch Bazzare.

Feeling good and having a ton of fun. Beautiful here.

Thanks for reading!
