We arrived in Lobuche to a great lodge with a fantastic sunroom...ahh, finally warmth! As it was a short trek we had tons of time to put our feet up and just relax! From the sunroom we could see the steady line of yaks bringing down supplies from the camp up in Everest. It's closed for the remainder of the season after the accident where many Sherpas were killed a few weeks ago. We spent the night playing cards as usual but Mark wasn't feeling the best. It turns out he had a really bad night, as did Zach and Alex. So, in the morning instead of heading up to Base Camp and Kala Pattar we decided to go down in elevation to get better. We went down close to 800 meters to Pheriche to another warm and cozy lodge. We'll stay here all day tomorrow and decide if we should go back up or begin our decent down. Either way works as we've been in Everest region almost a month and have accomplished so much! So, a rest day tomorrow and then we'll see...
