Finally weighted myself after the trip. Lost 5 pounds. Kinda expected.

On #EBC the food was decent but not great. The higher you go, the more expensive and limited food becomes. People generally don't recommend ordering meat in higher villages, because all food was carried up and meat might not be properly refrigerated. And an order of "fried egg(s)" was two eggs at first and become one egg later.

Eggs, cheese, and lentil soups were the main protein sources on the trek.

Day 8 of my #EBC trekking today and finally reached the Base Camp.

Hiked 42 miles in the eight days. It's a moderate hike if you only consider the distance. Most days were only 4-5 hours of hiking with half day resting.

The actual challenge is the altitude. Every step can be a lot more difficult depending on how your body reacts to thin air. At the destination (EBC, 5360m), oxygen level is around 50% of sea level

昨天洗澡之前想起来还需要洗发水,因为没想到路上可以洗澡所以压根没带。

去旅馆自带的小卖部买。看小卖部的小朋友表示应该有但是不知道在哪儿。于是我们一起在小卖部里找了半天。。也还是没找到。

最后去隔壁小卖部买到了。走了三天开始发黏的时候洗个澡可真爽啊 😌

Hike了十分钟来给 @orz_zai 寄明信片,邮局居然关门门上贴个纸说去tea break了。。只好来旁边喝茶等。喝完茶邮局还没开门,茶店老板娘说今天是个什么节估计邮局的人自己放假了。。收了我一点邮票钱说会帮我寄出去 (@ Alpine Lodge Namche) swarmapp.com/weiwei9/checkin/6

EBC(Everest Base Camp) trekking第三天。待在Namche走走小trail适应海拔。

EBC的起点是Lukla,海拔2850米。Namche海拔大约3500米。

沿途的手机信号比我想象的好太多,每个村都有信号,路上时有时无。

一路住的地方都有简单的床和被子,很不错的食物,不太可靠的wifi,有时候要收钱的电源插座,有不少甚至还有淋浴!
