Blood pressure back to normal....pulse is normal....maybe I am now normal....except a nasty cold.

Definitely got an infection right on the get go....

Not sad to have not gone all the way up the hill....the adventure was great for what I did.....I mean.....crossing a total of 7 suspension bridges, one of which was hundreds of feet in the air....wasn't my thing with vertigo..but I did it.

Was reading the blog of a couple of guys who did the trek last year....their summary of the trek was "what were we thinking?"...would they do it again..."no". I won't be doing it again but it was a grateful experience.

I am reading another book about summiting the highest peaks on the seven continents.....I finished the other book written by the son of the first sherpa to be on top of Mt. Everest....well worth reading.

Somewhere in the past couple of days I read a piece that brings all this together...it basically talks about people making these plans to go to Everest Base Camp or the like with a "sea level mentality"....isn't that the truth...that was definitely me....I missed the parts about being barely able to breathe and to get there...it is all up hill.

My next adventure.....too soon to tell...focus on getting out of this hospital and pray that the Chinese will allow me to hop a plane with my ticket for the 8th of April now. Time will tell.
