There are three friendly couples
we keep bumping into on the trail and often staying in the same lodge
with. Jay and Jodi are from Alberta,
Jerry and Samantha (Sam) are from England and Australia, and Patrick and Lim
are from Los Angeles and Korea. Getting
to know them and sharing impressions of our experience has been very
pleasant.
Brook in particular is enjoying the opportunity for good conversation with folks other than Mom and Dad. He is also energized when we catch up with them on the trail. After four hours of climbing up to Ringmo, Brook started to fade on the last part. Eydie carried his pack on her front. Thankfully, we caught up with Patrick and Lim and had a nice lunch with them. Revived, Brook made it over Taksindu Pass (3071 m) and down to Ninthala in the rain happily chatting away with Patrick.

We’ve had mostly cloudy weather
so far, but we did get to enjoy a few thrilling glimpses of the white capped
mountains where we’re headed.
