On our way- Trek Day One
 
Naive and excited we headed out on the first of many long treks. Day one took us seven hours...and left us sore and worried about the rest of the trek
 

   


The crew... this was taken as we left the hotel for our 9 day trip
The Stok palace (with military tower in the back-250,000 troops in Leh)
Looking out towards Kashmir (that's why there are so many troops)
Leh is a military airport. Planes have to fly between mountains to land
Nuri, Shyamg, and Kristine...we learned a lot about Nepali culture
"...are we there yet?"
Kristine at the end of day one "oh my god that was hard!"
sheep meander through our campsite
We tried to keep clean on our trek-Zeeb helps Kristine wash
AHHHH! I paid to feel like crap!
It's only day one...are we going to make it?
