Journey to Everest Base Camp- 2018-planning

planning:-                                                                                                                                                                           On May 7th, 2018 I was discussing with Jayakumar about a trip. I was telling with him let’s stay away  from modern life style for some days . Let’s go somewhere high place in Himalayas. Jayakumar replied to me Mount Everest is highest peak in the world,  let’s go there. Actually he was kidding me. We did google search about Everest. We came to know that mountaineers are going to Base Camp on 26th May. We enquired the organisers about the trip and we also booked on 26th slot. After booking the slot organisers sent us big list of hiking goods. We brought everything from decathlon. We got very short time for preparation. Just 15 days left. We did only practice is daily two hours walk. Our day 25th arrived so soon. We started our journey from Bangalore via Delhi and reached Kathmandu.
