John & Edmond's Everest Adventure

THE ROUTE

WE'LL BE ARRIVING in Kathmandu, Nepal on April 19/20 from LAX after layovers in Shanghai and Seoul. 
After two days for shopping, sightseeing, and obtaining our China visas, we're off to Lhasa,11,995 feet, for one (guaranteed sleepless) night. 
Then by car for the next three days across the high Tibetan plateau, with side hikes to build some red blood cells, to Rongbuk and up to Everest/Tibet basecamp where the real climbing begins.
