Everest Basecamp Trek Whirlybirds Trek to Tengboche

Namaste everyone,

We had a great day trekking to Tengboche, about 5 hours of walking. It was a beautiful day with a little fresh snow this morning making the air even more fresh. We enjoyed amazing views of Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam and Kantega. We were able to visit the Tengboche Monastery this afternoon and sit while one of the Lamas was reciting prayers. We hope to visit again in the morning. When you spend time here walking it is very easy to feel the spirituality of this place. The team is doing great relaxing with hot drinks and reading before dinner! We are all sending our best to everyone back home.
Thanks for following along!

Eric and the team
