October 9th – Thanygboche to Namche Bazaar:
Started the day at the monesatry for the monk's morning prayers, an apple pancake at the guest house and then the hike down to Namche.One last view of the Himalayas:
The vendors in Namche now sell outdoor gear in case you forgot to bring anything from home. There is even a Mountain Hardware store and a Sherpa store…with Western prices. (No Nepal discount here!)
