When we start to climb, Adrien came to see us and one more time, I decided to leave the group to hike with Adrien who was a good hiking mate.
We went straight to the Holy Ice lake and as we knew that we did not have much time the day after we decided to go down and to climb another part of the mountain.
When we saw our group, we convince of a meeting at the base camp latter on. They went to the ice lake and one of them even took a bath in the lake (crazy man)
On our side we climb the other part of the mountain where nobody was Hiking: we had the mountain only for us!!!
We made a lunch stop on the top of a cliff at 4050 m with a view of all the valley and then we started to go down to base camp.
When we arrived, we did not see any of our group, so we began to drink a beer each, after one hour as they still did not appear, we drunk another beer, and after one hour and half as they were still not here, we decided to go down. With the beer and with the hiking way completely wet with a lot of mud we ran to go down jumping in the mud and scaring the other hikers who tried to not be dirty.
It was a very great run and my Chinese shoes still remember it!!!!
At the end of the day we all went to the guest house of Adrien to get diner and we started another card game.
As we went to do a last hike to the holy water fall with the hand of Buddha, we will go tomorrow just Adrien and I to the water fall and tried to go down before the real departure at 11AM which means that we will wake up at 6AM to start the hike
