The bad weather which delayed us only a few hours on our flight to Lukla also delayed all the other flights for 2-3 days afterwards. Therefore, the replacement medications, food stores for the next 2.5 months, and the rest of our gear including our warmest down jackets and snow boots was also delayed. We have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of these 600 kg which have been traveling by yak for 5 days. In the meantime, Jeet (our Nepali cook) has been amazingly inventive with the remaining supplies from last season.
The yaks arrived tonight and after dinner we opened 28 bags of goodies including a huge wheel of yak cheese, 100lbs of basmati rice, several jars of cocoa, antibiotics, and of course our gear bags. It was almost like Christmas.
