Namaste from Namche!

Hi guys

I have now completed my second day of trekking in the Himalayas and am here for 2 nights at Namche Bazaar. Yesterday we flew into Lukla onto a seriously dodgy landing strip (up a hill) then did a gentle trek to Phakding. Today was a much tougher walk and we gained a lot of altitude. The scenery is stunning but unfortunately the weather is not. It is FRIGGING COLD, cloudy and snowing. So unfortunately that obscures all the amazing views and the weather is set to continue. Very sad about that but my trekking group is great and we are all braving the cold, squat toilets, high altitude and uphill struggles together. No internet from here onwards so goodbye until after I (hopefully) reach Base Camp and (hopefully) see some mighty good views. Bye!
