Today we will walk about 6 or 7 hours to Lukla where we hope the weather improves by tomorrow as our flights are scheduled for 30th of May to Kathmandu. It was rainy and foggy all day. One good thing is that it was not too sunny, but the bad thing is that we are now almost in the monsoon season and so this affects flights into Lukla. We have heard that there are many teams stuck in Lukla waiting for space on flights. Each plane only holds about 20 people. We have guaranteed space only if flights actually fly on May 30. If not, we join the long queue and we wait in Lukla. Some groups have had to wait a week in Lukla - lets hope we don't! My flights from Kathmandu are due out on June 7. If we make it to Kathmandu on 30th, I will definitely see if I can leave earlier. It's time to go home!
