The trek to Lobuche was pretty amazing about 90% of it was through ice and snow which really kept us on our toes. We passed some amazingly beautiful huts strewn with icicles and snowy roof's, the mountains were incredibly close and there was a really peaceful feel to the whole day.
We stopped for chai at Dughla before making our way to Lobuche where we were surprised to find very little other than really expensive accomodation (400/- per night instead of the regular 200/-).
Altitude is really starting to effect our sleep now and we generally only get 2-3 hours total each night. The thin dry air leaves us with a dry cough and a mouth like the Sahara Desert, often we would wake choking because we were not getting enough air.
