Off to Nepal for the Real Deal 

Well, finally after months of anticipation, me and my youngest, Juliet, are off to Kathmandu to start an adventure. It’s a good one too. The real deal as we’re trekking a couple of hundred miles in the Himalayas around the Annapurna range, and climbing up to the highest pass in the world, Thorong La, at nearly 18,000 feet. 

We’re at Manc airport at the moment, setting off soon to Oman, getting 6 hours there in the sun and then setting off for Kathmandu. 

We’re leaving the suitcases in Kathmandu and putting on our cold weather gear and rucksacks for the trek, no roads on much of it, just mountains and tiny villages. Can’t wait. We are on our own with a guide and a porter. It doesn’t get much better. 

And it looks like this. Oh my giddy aunt!

And here’s our old lass who makes it all possible and worthwhile. What a babe. 

I hope to blog in Oman tomorrow. 

Night night.
