Gokyo Ri - 5365m (Sunday)

Well. I did it. I almost couldn't, but I did it. A long long steep haul. You cannot imagine how much effort it took. 

That towering snow covered peak in the background is The Everest.

As I was climbing up, and going down, I had elegant prose written in my head, telling of my struggles, a brilliant story.

I sit here now at Machhermo, having walked from Gokyo Ri to here, exhausted, eating fried Vege Mo-Mo, and waiting till I can go to sleep.

I think I'm going to buy a shower tonight.
