1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour #374 - Tengboche to Dingboche @ 4360m, Day5

1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #374

- Tengboche to Dingboche @ 4360m, Day5 


(The beautiful Ama Dablam @ 6856m greeted us on this gorgeous morning, as we head to Dingboche.  The ring of clouds below it made it seemed like a giant "Mother-with-necklace', with broad shoulders peering down at us. It was simply inspiring, and made for a happy start to our trek. Just watch the awesome video below - as if Ama Dablam is feeding the huge rapids just 100m below. All too soon, fatigue set in. And with our bladder filling up rather quickly over this 8hr-trek, we took our first toilet break in the open mountainside, and again before reaching Dingboche, like a wolf marking its territory. We had to remind ourselves that we have reached this active settlement of 100-odd people, already higher than Mt Kinabalu!)
