Overhead View
No foolin’! Happy April. Here is a view of the region where my trek will take place. We fly into Lukla and then off we tread like little ants meandering along the valley toward the north where we ultimately hope to reach Gokyo Ri and take in the glorious view of Everest to our east. I am hoping for clear weather that day! Teams planning to summit Everest will share our route up to Namche Bazaar. Eventually, they go their way, and we go ours. That’s ok with me.

It all commences tomorrow. I’m going to have a fabulous adventure! I’ll tell you all about it when I get back. Remember, you can follow along each step of the way because I’ve created posts that will automatically appear each day to reveal our itinerary and provide highlights. Take care of things while I’m gone. Be nice to one another. Smile when you think of me.


Good luck and have a blast, John! I want to see pictures when you get back!
