Everest Trek Begins!!!! Day 1

The day has finally come, my guide Uzol, (not how you spell it but this will do) and I depart the hotel early in the morning to catch a flight to Lukla which is where the actual trekking begins. Its only about a 30 minute flight but it takes you right into the Himalayans…according to Uzol, the Lukla airport is one of the most dangerous in the world and he still gets a little nervous when flies into it, he says “check it out on YouTube”….Great, thanks for telling me…as my guide, shouldn’t he be telling how great this trip is gonna be and how exciting it is? Not “we may crash on this flight”….actually it didn’t really bother me and when we landed, I realized why this place was so dangerous…because the airport is in the mountains, the runway is very short and it is built on and angle, (not sure how many degrees, but it looks pretty steep) so when u come in for landing, the pilot has to land uphill!! (I’m not a pilot, but I’m guessing that’s not the safest way to do it)…anyhow, by reading this blog, you know we made it safe and sound (although a little bumpy along the way).

Airport check in counter...pretty basic, but it works...

Here's our ride...about what I expected...

Kinda gives you the size of the plane...almost shoulder to shoulder, reminds me of the flight from Vancouver to Guangzho

You can't really tell from the pic but the runway is severely sloping up!!!

At the airport, we meet up with our porter “Boo”….he’s probably about 5’2” and about 110 lbs from one of the nearby villages…my bag wasn’t that big so I didn’t feel too guilty, as I found out later, he was a fast little bugger!! We had some breakfast and we were off, we would hike about 2.5 hrs to our first spot to spend the night…the trail wasn’t too bad, kinda like a walking path in Stanley Park except a little bit rougher…as we went along, I thought to myself “this isn’t so bad”, “I can go all day like this”….little did I know what was ahead for Day 2……
