Early morning I needed to go to the lu and I looked outside and there were the mountains. I grabbed my camera and in my underwear I went out to take pictures for almost an hour. What a beautiful view.
We had breakfast outside in the warm sun. The we went on, directly uphill. For me the first half an hour is always the worst until my "machine" is wrm and running smoothly. Although I had a break of almost a weak returning to 4000m I do not exeprience any problem, except of a bit being short breathed, but that's normal.
The way winding along the rocks somewhat scary. When we arrived at the holy Hindu lake at 4400m it was hazy. Then the sun came back, hazy again and so on. 3 changes in 5 minutes. Fter lunch m,y heroes started playing flight control again on my iPad which they enjoyed for the last weeks. After a while the weather cleared up a bit and I stated I will round the lake and they joined me. Actually it is a holy place for the Hindus as Shiva once stopped here and he wanted to drink water, but it was all ice. So he threw his Trishul and where it hits the ground the water came out.
As far as Hinduism and Buddhism is often mixed up in Nepal you see a lot of prayer flags also around the fountain.
So we started walking around the lake which looks kind of from another planet with all these small stone cairns set up even in the middle of the lake.
Being back at he lodge the young boy and his mother sat with me watching pictures from the trip on my iPad and I also showed them pictures from my family and it was for them very interesting.
Three days no shower now as they only offer you bucket shower and that's too cold for me and taking a bucket shower outside is not my way.
