Day 3 - Mon June 11, 2007 : Magin Goth [3285m] - Phedi [3430m]

The 6:30 tea wake-up call had started to feel normal. We washed our faces and had tea and be ready for the new adventure.

We were on the trail before 7:00 AM again. Mist filled the morning air; it was not possible to see the tops of the hills. Our trail is still Inside the forest. The mist kept us cool while we hiked along the comparatively good trail.

The sun peeked out later in the morning heating things up. At arround 10:00 AM We reached Thare Pati (3500m). We took some rest there and had some biscites and Tea and again be ready for the new experience. We wandered through a variety of rhododendron trees and flowers . The environment was so cool for walk. At arround 1:00 PM we reached our lunch spot, place called Ghopte (3500m). We hung the jackets to make it dry cause it was wet with sweats. The sun is not seen clearly but the environment was too hot. We ordered for the tea then lunch. We be fresh with the ship of tea. Shashi played tungna ...bhera ko oon jasto ... for the little while. Rabin and me slept for sometime in the bench outside of the lodge. After 1 hrs we had daal, rice, potato curry and tomato pickle. Immediately after lunch we packed up and begin the trip again.

The trail led us Up and Down after lunch. We were kinda tired and were glad that the trail was pretty good, somewhere the trail is covered with very hard and sleepy. At one point it turned fairly woodsy and steep.
Beautiful view of small waterfalls help us to come out the tiredness.
At around 7 PM we reached Phedi (3500m), our todays destination. That place is associated with a bad event occured in 1992 July 31st - Airplane crashed of the Thai Airways Airbus A 310, 133 peoples were killed. The darkness was covering the earth slowly. The beautiful sound of waterfall is making the environment more wonderful. We be fresh and have the hot tea and wait for the dinner until it is ready.

Dinner was the usual potatoes, Daal, rice and something special drink ... After dinner the we spend some time chatting and playing tungna.. altitude is not effecting any one of us but it is too cold outside so we were in the room burning the wooder heater. Soon after some time we went to the bed. Bikash and me was in a room. Neither of us slept well before 11:00 am, that is because of either with excitement or the cool environment, we were not certain.
