Namaste!

Hello from Dingboche! Today we had another wonderful day hiking closer to
Everest Base Camp. We have been very lucky with the weather and everyone is
doing great! On our way to Dingboche we stopped at the monastery at
Pangboche and had our expedition blessed by the Lama Geishe. What a truly amazing
ceremony. We are now safely tucked away at the Snow Lion Lodge enjoying
lattes and cinnamon rolls.

We will stay in Dingboche for the next three days taking short acclimation
hikes and enjoying the views of Taboche and Ama Dablam towering over us.
