Nepal Trip 2007: Day 8 (trekking day 4 or 5): Mani Dingma 19 October 2007 9:09 am
Posted by Tracy in : health,nepal,travel , trackbackHappy birthday to my dad! Also by an astounding coincidence of truly epic proportions, today I am exactly the age my mother was when I was born. As you can probably imagine, our minds were all kinds of blown when we computed this date, oh yes.
Our itinerary for today looks pretty exciting, too: we’re going over Takshindu Pass (9000 feet) to Mani Dingma, also spelled Manidingma in some guidebooks, and sometimes called Nuntale or Nunthala (altitude: 7500 feet, or maybe just 7200 feet/2194 meters, depending on where I read about it). Picture me drinking lots and lots of water and being really excited about altitude sickness medication (which I did not know existed before this trip and I am ever so happy to have learned about).

This post was written and scheduled for automagical posting in the week before I left on this crazy adventure. I hope to write many more posts about the trip — you know, with more actual details and pictures and stuff — but for now this is all we’ve got while my intergoogle access is all kinds of sporadic during my travels from October 9 until November 6.
