Made it to Everest Base Camp this afternoon - a long hard day of 8 hours walking at 5000 meters (or 15000 feet)
We trecked up from Dingboche to Labuche yesterday - about 7 hours walking though pleasant alpine meadow and then up the Khumbu g;acier - that looks like nothing so much as a giant quarry and building site :) Today we trecked from Labuche to EBC and then back to Gorek Shep - where I am at the moment in the worlds highest internet cafe.
Very hard walking to day on glacial morain and across glaciers.
Tomorrow - we head up to Kala Patta at 5800 meters for view of Everest and tgen back to Dingboche
