'Zoom zoomed' to Phakding

Hi all,
We finally made it up to Lukla on the flight today. We've now walked to Phakding at 2630m where we're spending the night in a rather cool teahouse.
Internet is patchy and slow when it works so these blog updates will be short.
But in the main, we are both fine. Perhaps a little more apprehensive after today as we actually decended 200m from Lukla today and were both rather knackered by the end. We ascend over 840m tomorrow over 6-7 hours, of which the last stretch up to Namche Bazar is a reknowned hard hike.
Hopefully we'll manage to get some internet access in NB and give a full update. Two of the group have already come down with S+D which is not a good sign... but they'll both be fine.
Current schedule puts us at Base Camp next Tuesday.
Be in touch soon
Ste & Jen
