April 21, 22 (Sunday and Monday)
I didn’t do much that day besides rest. I still felt pretty weak and somewhat nauseous. Two of the group members who didn’t go up on first rotation flew down to Kathmandu so I didn’t really have much to do in terms of socialization. Lakpa Rita said he wanted to take me up to Kala Pathar (neighboring mountain, 18,192ft) tomorrow to acclimatize. I didn’t know what to think about that given my physical state (tiredness and nausea). I was so sick already of being dirty and smelly! I really wished I could just come home for a week to re-energize.. no such thing on a mountain though.
The following day Lakpa was supposed to take me on the acclimatization hike but somehow that fell through. I can’t say I was upset, I still needed my rest. I was a bum all day.
