I need to cast my mind back a few days to update you so here goes! Dingboche - Lobuche 4900M 2 May We are really in the Himalaya's now! Shortly after setting off it began to snow and so it continued for the rest of todays trek. We had a bit of a climb out of Dingboche, then quite a long flat section.

You guys are my heroes!
I can not actually believe what superheroes you guys are! It sounds absolutely HECTIC. I am sure your own bed, when you eventually reach it, will be ultimate heaven (not to mention your toilet and shower!) Trust you have been taking photo's that you'll share with us on your return? Well we're very glad you're alive and in one piece. Well done my friends. Tam, just think how easy it will be for you to go camping in the future! Keep well. Lots of love Tammy, Bruce and the kids

Way to go!!!!
Well, here are a little late, but dazzled never the less :) Wish you could see the size of your nephews eyes as we read your story and find the location on Google Earth. You guys rock! We stand amazed! What an incredible journey. Please please send photos soon. No doubt your birthday will pale in comparison, but that's probably a good thing (tehehe...how old did you say you're turning ? - that's a LOT of candles as our kids would say). Thinking of you all, as always and can't wait to chat when you get back. The Lord bless you and keep you. Tons of love, your Sis et al

SAS
Hi Guys. Unbelievable feat (and feet!!!) We are VERY impressed. Congrats on a huge achievement. When you talk about Tam and the SAS, does mean South African Sherpa?!?!?! Trevor, how could you have doubted your wife's abilities to perform at altitude as she has to be a natural in the Himalayas... she just loves to Yak!!! Phenomenal achievement guys!!! Craig
