After breakfast we hiked 9 miles to Upper Pisang. It took us about 7 hours and we gained 2000+ feet of elevation. I don't think I have altitude sickness, but I do feel very tired and have a bit of a headache.
Leaving Chame
One of many bridges we crossed. The water was very clear.
So many (stray) mountain dogs. We pet as many as we could.
Kinda what a typical village looks like. Just some small hotel looking places in the mountains. They also sell snacks/drinks for trekkers like us.
a cow!
a waterfall in the rocks. All throughout our trek we followed the Marshyangdi River; runs about 93 miles total.
Benny carefully looking over the cliff.

Mountains!
Another bridge.
on a very windy bridge
A big slab we thought looked cool. We wanted to ride a motorcycle up it, lol.
We saw a teahouse that looked like The Grand Budapest Hotel (actually the Himalaya Hotel), so we decided to stay there for the night. The layout of it was a bit weird but there were a lot of rooms (~38 total) but we were the only people staying there. We ate a late lunch and then just chilled in our room because it got cold when the sun set.
I think we're both pretty wiped out from today because we both went to bed early.
The mountains up here are crazy beautiful! My pictures don't even begin to do it justice; maybe it's more beautiful in real life because not only does it look beautiful, the "feeling" of being here plays a big part in it.
