4343m - Dingboche - One more cinnamon role (okay, had one when we arrived in Tengboche yesterday at the Tengboche Bakery. Tough choices as the dutch apple pie looked wonderful yet doubt it could beat my wife's version back home) after breakfast and we were off on our trek towards Dingboche with lunch at Shomare mid-day. Prior to Shomare we made several stops to take in the last views of Everest before descending into the Khumbu valley (see pictures). The next time we see it will be from Kala Patthar just before reaching basecamp on April 9. We arrived at Dingboche around 2 pm taking in the towering Ama Dablam which rises roughly 2500 meters more above us (see photo). Simply incredible. Tomorrow is our rest day before heading to Lobuche on April 7 where we will stay in tents for the first time. Then it will be tents
through May! Everest may be out of sight but it is surely not out of mind.I would like to take this opportunity to thank my employer and sponsor, Alpharma Animal Health, for its support of this trip to the top of the world. It is with honor and pride that our company logo accompanies me on this voyage. "No place but up" on our "Quest for Success" together...
