The boys had a sleep in while I snuck out early to watch the sunrise over the mountains again. I can't seem to get enough of them. Its a crystalline clear day after the rain and snow and I have it all to myself for an hour or so. The owner of the teahouse brings me a cup of ginger tea to keep warm. After breakfast we start going down through winding dirt paths and green forests. Its so much easier today going down but I can still feel the thighs from yesterday.
We've only been walking 3 hours when we get to ghandrup but I'm not ready to leave the mountains yet so we decide to just stay for the night.
From our guesthouse we have a stunning view of machapuchhre the fishtail mountain, annapurna south and huin chuli. Bry and I explore the village and visit the medical centre and the museum. Tomorrow we leave the mountains and I promise I'll stop talking about them. We met an aussie teacher on the way down who had been here when he was 15 and finally got back. He said the mountains were in his blood and I had to agree with him.
Namaste Sandy
