The air
is
definitely becoming gradually thicker and the breathing easier. And
it helps to be going downhill most of the
day.
We descended the big
hill below
Namche, passing the first (last) view of Everest. Then
down into the depths of the gorge. It
is
nice to see the green fields, fresh
flowers, the newly harvested potatoes, and more people. |

| Although
I still
cannot talk, have an annoying cough, and am draining an awful yellow
mucus, I
am feeling a lot better.
Dinner tonight
was outstanding.
Our cood staff
purchased some fresh chickens, and made delicious baked chicken, enough
for
everyone.
It was seasoned with a
spicy
covering and baked to tender perfection. I
don't know how they do it.
They
also made a decorated birthday cake, which was dense and not too sweet,
but
tasty and a real treat.

The
kids at Toktok were especially cute. None of the
kids
seemed to be supervised. In general, they were very well
behaved. |

| These girls were
determined to entertain us. |
