Everest Base Camp Trek Dispatch
May 3, 2011 – We Spent the Morning with Lama Geshi
It is a rainy Himalayan afternoon. Our team has just begun trekking for Pheriche, elevation 4200 meters.
Our morning was indescribly peaceful and rewarding. We visited Lama Geshi for a morning of contemplation, laughter and reverence. Each of us was blessed in ways that we will never forget.
I hope these few photos will give our viewers a feeling for the blessings that each member of our team received from Lama Geshi
