25 Apr 2013 Trekking Day 5 to Tharepati

Easier walk after lunch

bamboo basket


Giant tree with big hollow

Then we needed to climb up again towards Tharepati

It turned misty again

Noel was exhaused but the end-point of today's walk was in sight

This was the junction point for the Gosainkuda trek and the Helambu trek

The dining area was quite modern and comfortable.  I liked the little girl (12 years of age) who served us, she was shy and hard-working
 

 

Feel like home as there was a blanket with native Chinese pattern

We were the only one group in the hotel.  I took the time to snapshot the sunset

 

Phedi was just at the opposite side of the valley

 

Babo took the time to call the travel agent office to report our progress and asked for transport arrangement to taking us back to Kathmandu.  He also shared with me his license as a TMS guide and climbing guide.  He had once climbed up to 7000m, really great.
