Update From Kathmandu

Here's an update from Noelle Wenceslao

-----------------------

Dear Vince,

Ikaw nalang kulang. We're reunited with Leo and PALMC sa ilalim ng puno sa breakfast buffet ng Hotel Marshyangdi. They're Island Peak climb went well -- Dami nilang news on the recession of the glaciers and the glacial lake outburst stuff. Washed out daw ilang bridges, but we have yet to see that.

Peter Negrido and party are in Lukla already, but we're flying there on Tuesday pa.

Demolished na Sherpa Guesthouse, so tiis nalang ng sikip sa Marshyangdi.We're meeting with the Filipino community and other friends here in KTM today. Tapos groceries, etc. Wala pa naman kwento worth telling, but definitely this trip is a lot less stressful than last year.

Yours,

Everyone
