Disappointed by the last two days weather and was just back to 1 day to leave. Thought would give the Everest view hotel one more try if weather clears up. Wake up at 5 am and its looks dull. Get back to my bed thinking cant see Everest. Wake up 6am and its all clear. For the first time i see all the peaks around Namche. Get ready in a jiffy and head out. But first have to fill up the tummy a bit if i wanna trek till Everest View hotel. Get into a conversation with the hotel owner, who tells me that can see Everest from just above Namche town from Army camp. He was right alright. And yes i see the Mt Everest for the first time. Just the top of it rising above Nuptse ridge. Few clicks. Got a great view of Mt Amadablam as well. Pretty exited about the clear weather, decide to trek up to Everest view hotel any way for bettor view.
As i climb up, see people going towards Tengboche and felt a pang. Then the mist races me from below and covering all the mountains in a hurry! Half way up wanted go any way atleast to have breakfast. But the mist clears up. Do we have a good view? The whole sky is clear except for a cloud covering just the Mt Everest. Good that i went to the army camp and saw before coming here. Got pictures of the other mountains around. Mt Amadablam looked stunning. Spent quite some time there only to see gradually clouds covering the mountains. Now with the trek back was in no mood to start back. Thought would spend the day logging and make a push to Lukla the next day.
But with all the people i had been meeting, all of them were headed up to Base camp. That gets me real tempted. That will be way out side my physical abilities. Spend the after noon wavering between the thoughts of heading back and going up. Get some cash, small shopping just in case i decide to go up. Not at all sure as to what i will do. Night i deciced let me head back as i am not a trekker and i got what i wanted here, a view of Mt Everest.
