At breakfast Kathryn told us she was definitely leaving the trek and we left Soonam (guide) with her.
The early start was freezing and immediately into an uphill slog which at least warmed us up. We had a short stop at a local stupa where a local lady had set up a shop where she had a few sales (Miranda on a shopping frenzy).
We continued on an uphill slog – why is everything uphill?
we stopped at a local tea house for some drinks and a sit in the sun before heading off again.
the walk wasn’t’ too bad and we headed straight to Yak Kharka where we were housed in what looked like Swiss Chalets and a double bed with a big blanket.
We had a quiet afternoon and SB went for an uphill walk and I had a lie down.
Finally getting organised and heading out to the dining room and watching Forrest Gump!
We headed to the upstairs restaurant where there was a pathetic heater and played cards until our early dinner arrived.
Heading back to our chalet where we were toasty and warm considering the outside temperature was -3C.
