Dole, afternoon

Back in the tea house 

Walked up a hill to see nothing (way way too cloudy), but we're now at the sort of altitudes where we need to start climbing up and sleeping down. Did the Vibe communications photo shot up there too. 

It was an arduous walk, very tiring.

My biggest complaint is everything is damp. Nothing gets a chance to dry, so it's always damp. Even the merino stuff stays damp. The "quick dry" t-shirts have proven they are not up to the task. I have 3 t-shirts hanging in the room at the moment, and I hope that one will be more or less dry by morning.

It's starting to get pretty cold, but that combined with gear that just won't dry is making things not so great.

Have something called mountain wifi which is rather expensive 200mb wifi that is slow but at least allows posting things like this.

Tomorrow is apparently a short walk day, though we gain 400m. 

Looking forward to the lakes, which is in a few more days.

Favourite foods:

• Tibetan bread with honey and jam
