Highlights: Flight Upgrade, Final Group Dinner
The antibiotics were obviously taking some effect as the swelling on my face was slowly receding which was very good news.

Highlights: Train to Lhasa, bargaining for souvenirs (but not very well)The day was dominated by severe swelling in my face. Yesterday afternoon my face swelled up like a ballon on the left side which today started expanding to front as well.

Highlights: Mount Everest in the morning, Stunning landscape.We it turns out trying to sleep above 5,000 metres is no easy task. During the night I consistently woke up requiring water as the air is so dry at this altitude. When the electric blanket kicked in at 1 am I eventually removed my jeans but otherwise slept with the some layers from yesterday.
