We left Namche and headed for Tengboche (12,700ft). The monastery is the center of town with only a small trekking lodge and a bakery in the town. The monastery was a beautifully ornate building the boasted a 15ft high Buddha statue. The bakery served warm sourdough bread and had a sign that read, "next stop for fresh bread France". Today was Camille's birthday and we celebrated with a traditional Nepalese curry know as Dalibut and delicious chocolate cake from the local bakery. The Sherpas gifted Camille with scarfs that represented long life and good luck on our trek.
