I felt pretty crappy last night, but woke up feeling pretty good. \u00a0I managed to keep down a bowl of porridge and we set off towards Phalpu. \u00a0At first, I was feeling pretty good, but was super down on myself for not being with Seth. \u00a0I kept wondering if we had just stayed at Sengephuk for another night, would I have been able to continue on? \u00a0Because my issue was definitely not altitude. \u00a0I felt just as horrible when at a much lower altitude as I did at the high altitude. \u00a0But, I guess there’s no real way of knowing.<\/p>\n

Later on our trek I began to feel progressively worse and worse. \u00a0I became so weak, my stomach was doing backflips, and I could barely lift my feet over the small rocks. \u00a0I needed a full day of rest and I wasn’t giving it to myself. \u00a0So, then I revisited my thought about how I might be trekking with Seth to Dund Kund right now if we had just stayed another night at Sengephuk, also, if we had stayed another day in Jumbese maybe the trek to Phalpu would have been easier. \u00a0I decided the pony idea was a bad one. \u00a0The trails are too perilous. \u00a0So many slippery rocks on trails that drop off the mountain. \u00a0Anyhow, after about four and a half to five hours we finally made it to Phalpu. \u00a0I feel like crap, but I’m drinking a lot of water. \u00a0I’m staying at the Hotel Everest and I get my own bathroom, not shower, but at least I don’t have to walk down the hall in the middle of the night. \u00a0And if all goes according to plan, I’ll see Seth tomorrow. \u00a0I hope all goes according to plan!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
