Today we have a down hill stroll back to the lovely village of Sinwa. While our trip from Sinwa up to ABC took two days (1.5 really) MBC down to Sinwa would be done in one. This is mostly because much of our trip today was down hill! And after just about two days of mostly up hill this was quite a relief! Snatching our last few views of the mountains as we walked south the weather got warmer and more of the lush Oregon-esk greenery began to appear all around. It was a pleasant day and good to be going town hill. Oh did I mention that we were happy to be loosing elevation?? It was quite evident on peoples faces as we passed them on their upward trudge at how tough that part of the trail was at that point! (who would have thought there would be so much up and down in the Himalayas!!) Dad and I however were all smiles and well wishes for those upwards Trekkers! Really though it was all area we had seen in the way up, so mostly we just got to "sit" back and enjoy the scenery and stroll down hill!
Tomorrow will be our last full day of trekking and a good 6-7 hours at that!! It's been a great trip so far, but I know that i am looking forward to a shower when we get back to Kathmandu (still no hot water). And it'll be nice to stay off my feet for some time once this trek is over :p
