Talk of a 0830 flight to Lukla so it was a early morning and back to Kathmandu Domestic airport. On arrival it was another 2 hour wait before we got ushered through to the gate. Then 2 minutes later they close Lukla airport due to bad weather. This was the start of 6 hours of waiting before being told to go home and try again tomorrow.
Getting to Lukla is proving to be more difficult than first thought. Let's hope it'd third time lucky and we get away tomorrow.
I'm really wanting to get on with the walk in to base camp now. To much down time and not enough to do resulting in starting to miss home and thinking a lot about what I left behind. My beautiful fiancé and lovely family.
Met another two members of the team that are climbing with us today, Valerie and Molly. Becky also arrives today. I also found out that 2 girls will be going for the youngest British Girl to summit Everest in henrys group.
Another early night and early start tomorrow.
Get some others and pay for a chopper mate....
