Three Passes Trek Days 24 & 25

Three Passes Trek Day 24 & 25 - Namche Bazaar. Day 24 - Complete rest day today, after covering 3 days worth of trekking in the last 2 days. Slept in and came down for breakfast at 8:30. Light walk around Namche and tea/ coffee at a few different places. It seems less busy than when we were last here a few weeks ago, as the trekking season draws to a close. I had my first shave and haircut for several weeks yesterday afternoon and I feel lighter,energised and possibly younger. It's nice just observing the day to day activities of a place without actually having to go anywhere or achieve anything. The movement of yaks, the activities of children, the goings on in the temples and veggie gardens and market places, and as always the stillness of the mountains. It's now late afternoon and the snow caps of the mountains still glisten in the sunshine while all else has become dark, like beacons of ice cream.

Day 25 - 2 hour walk out of Namche today, hill climb and descent, just to keep the legs stretched, other than that another day a bit like yesterday. Enjoying the cafes, treats and vibes before tomorrow's big walk down to Lukla.
