Whee!
Off again to Nepal today with trek group A! We will be flying this evening to Kathmandu via Delhi, and arriving at the Summit Hotel sometime tomorrow afternoon local time. Then, the fun really begins. For those of you on the last trip, you will remember the diary. The trekkers will get up on Monday morning to start 15 days of diary collection - up and down on that step every morning before caffeine levels are sorted out!
I cannot wait to spend time in the Summit Hotel garden, listening to the birds, smelling the flowers, looking to the mountains and anticipating the wonderful flight to Lukla. The trek will have had urine analysed, sleep studied, and all sorts of things already. And I will have organised the small hillock of kit that is awaiting me in Kathmandu. No peace for the wicked!

Give my regards to Caroline Silver Lewis who is with you. My replacement right knee is coming along fine -- now. Tashi Delek, Allen Bordoley (London) |

You missed the Easter Bunny which arrived here early yesterday but maybe you'll meet a yeti yet. Take care. Remember - what goes up, must come down. Love, XXXXXX......XXXXXX (42, altogether) |
