Bhutan Day 9<\/p>\n

\n
Altitude: 12,370<\/div>\n
Weather: everything<\/div>\n
Everyone is well<\/div>\n
Shout out: John and Suneet\u2019s 10th Wedding anniversary – and she\u2019s here? wow – what a man\u2026..<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Philosophical musing: Heather has reached the zen of Buddhism (not) as per Suneet – given power issues – spent day with f-bombs trying to power 18 devices…!!!<\/div>\n

Bhutan moment: Our Bhutan team discovered real Canadian Maple Syrup!!!! what a joy to see the look on their faces<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Today was a rest day – yes its early on but it is also part of the acclimatization. We woke to variable weather – rain, sun, wind, clouds – above and also in them at one point. Suneet brought this amazing portable espresso maker and given we didn\u2019t get any yesterday – I got to have a double today!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We started the day with pancakes and real Canadian syrup (I brought). Our cook also served up french fries – I think he heard it was Suneet\u2019s anniversary and favourite food. Then what magic a hot shower. Kaka jury rigged a large bag of hot water for us to have a shower!!! Clean hair!!! and even more importantly clean underwear! man what a day.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A lot of lazing around – and at lunch Pizza – I mean really does it get better than this?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Team went and explored Laya – I spent the afternoon in the power cave – sorting our devices and ensuring enough power to get us through till next rest day which is in 6 days.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Team went to School and donated pencils that we had brought – they mingled with the kids who asked how old they were – and apparently they told the truth. Then they walked up to the temple and found the 50m brutal (which should be ugly tomorrow<\/span><\/span> as we go up and down and ultimately climb > 3000 feet).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Met a bunch of other trekkers, German, American and UK.<\/div>\n
