Greetings again from Namche Bazar! Well I broke a tooth last night on popcorn at Dingboche (14,450 feet) and returned here with Kurt to get it fixed toady. There is a woman here who does dental work and she fixed me up with some local anesthesia and a temporary filling! She said the Nepali people would think it funny that we did dental work on pets. I plan to send her supplies on my return. We will try and go all the way back up tomorrow, but will be moving with a different group. We are a bit tired but got a shower. Some folks have had GI troubles..sort of a fact of life. Altitude is beginning to make itself noticed. We move to Lobuje at over 16,000 two mornings from now. Everest is getting closer! That's all for now!
