Nepal Trip 2007: Day 12: Monjo 23 October 2007 1:18 pm
Posted by Tracy in : nepal, travel, health , 1 comment so farAnother trekking day today, and once again I’m not even attempting to get the correct count. What I do know is that Monjo (also spelled Monju or Mondzo depending on where I read about it) is where we enter Sagamartha (Everest) National Park! It’s at the foot of Namche hill, and that the trail descends for a while from Lukla before rising back up to Namche, which means I have a little bit of glorious fun and easy downhill to look forward to before doing some more climbing, which I must confess is not my forte. My one consolation is that by this point I will have been on altitude drugs for several days, and also I will have been walking for like a week, and so I hope to have accrued enough strength to not be a complete wimp.

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.
