Everest Base Camp Trek Day 6 April 1, 2010. (Day 2 of trekking)

A long 6-7hour day today travelling from Phakding to Namche Bazaar. After lunch saw us embark on a steep climb, commonly known as ‘the destroyer’, which took about 3hours. About half way up though we were rewarded with our first glimpses of Everest!
Namche is a 300 person village (quite big relatively speaking) set into a hillside which is a common path for all Everest trekkers and climbers so is the place you can find almost anything. 
Our views from our window were spectacular.
Altitude: 2620m to 3460m.
