Back to the "lowlands" again...

We made it!!! We actually saw the top of the world with our own eyes. It was so amazing.. But, mainly we wanted to let everyone know we are back down to the lowlands again (12,000ft if you can call that "low" heheh). We made it to our final destination of Kala Patthar and Everest Base Camp. Kala Patthar is 18,100 ft and is the viewpoint for the whole Khumbu Glacier, Everest Icefalls, Mt. Everest and Nuptse. INCREDIBLE!! We also visited base camp which is at 17,160ft and is actually on the Khumbu Glacier. Just wanted to let everyone know we were successful, and are back safely! See you in less than a week (if you are in Colorado that is).
Love, Lee & Betsy
