Today has been spent looking after various administrative matters, including updating the blog. So, I hope it gives you all some insights into our holiday. We have also tried to upload pictures, but after 5 hours, Ray was forced to give up the reader for the camera flash card and so has left. Do leave some comments for us – and elaborate on any of the information if you have more specific facts or if I have mis-interpreted anything. It’s all a lot to take in, and there is always a language issue which sometimes leads us to pick up incorrect information.
We are thinking of all of you and hoping things back in Canada are going OK.

This week, NASA has a shuttle crew in a high orbit, upgrading the Hubble Space Telescope. It is a dangerous mission. For the first time they have a backup shuttle waiting on the pad in case something goes wrong. High orbit is probably less than 500 miles above us several times a day. You two are so much farther away...and sometimes you seem to be on another planet. I think I saw an image from the planet Vulcan in this set of reports.

Everest Base Camp weather calls for highs at or just above freezing with light snow several days this week. I hope the clouds won't entirely block your view of the top of the world. May is the climbing season on Everest, then the weather changes to bad. If you are sleeping on the cold ground, use lots of insulation under you.
