Nepal and Bhutan Preparations


Yes, this would be the fabulous Mt. Everest!  I will finally get to see her with my very own eyes (why is she a she?)  I have been hiking up and down Kennesaw Mountain (it's only about 1,200' elevation), but I somehow think that just won't be enough.  I have my trekking poles, my broken-in shoes, my waterproof jacket, my bandaids and all my meds.




This would be part of the trail.





 
And this is the Taksang Monastery in Bhutan.
It's just a short hike up a shear cliff!
You may start saying your prayers for me at any time!



Yak.  Yak.  Yak.


I am so excited to have the chance to see all this, up close and personal.  It will definitely be a big, grand adventure!  And I get to spend most of it with my one and only usually favorite son!  Hooray!
