Day one kids at the first rest stop	Sal takes a well deserved drink	Day two	The view from 3450m
We were off up to the 4700m pass today	Spectacular Comments!	Weather still wasn't too good though!	Interesting. Where is this beautiful steed?
...oh	Our lovely campsite	Day Three. View from second pass	Bad form
Beard check	It's steep again on day 4	Kote	Emergency surgery
Day 5 rest stop Comments!	Day 5 camp	More kids Comments!	...we let them have a go too
Bloody Italians keep following us!	The teahouse next door to us	Day 6 acclimatisation hike	We made it too!
Day 7 and we all take a drinks break	The view of Mera Peak and adjoining mountains	The view down into Khare - last stop before Mera	Day 8 The icefall just beneath base camp
The way back	Rhododendrons and floating mountains	Rich in front of the entrance to the Khumbu	Sal takes it all in
Finally, we get to the top...	A dzo prefers what's on the table to slop bucket	So we sat and waited...	The unadulterated view
Worth it!
