Cannot imagine what an incredible experience that must have been! So lucky to have to have had that in your lifetime!

I very much enjoyed today's post. You do have a nice way with words. I was moved to turning to my journal and reliving the day I arrived at the Base Camp of Mt. Everest on December 4, 19767. Some different then. Thanks for the memory.

I love your descriptions of the "living" glacier.

Your description of Base Camp is like a bee hive of wild energies. I wonder how many languages are spoken there by each and every climber… did you see the record breaking ascent of Everest by Tyler Andrews? How is it possible? What an adventurous honeymoon! It’s also the best picture of you two!

I didn't see that, I'll have to look it up! And we heard so so many languages on our trip!
