Another merciless day. Oh and Hi blisters, where have you been all this time? I was already wondering. But you really didn't need to show up all at once! (6...)
And those never ending steep stone steps
. Or more precisely piled up rocks. Up and down, all day. Just putting one step before the next one, like a robot ;) But somehow I made it. The views were good though. Hiked through rainforests along waterfalls, crossed rivers and creeks on suspension bridges and walked through mountain villages. Arrived in Pothara 7 hours later and enjoyed the rare hot shower :) Sunset was spectacular too since we can see the whole Annapurna Mountain Range from here.
Und wieder ein gnadenloser Tag. Oh und Hallo Blasen, wo wart Ihr denn die ganze Zeit? Hab' mich schon gewundert. Aber Ihr brauchtet wirklich nicht alle auf einmal auftauchen! (6...)
Und dann diese niemals endenwollenden Steintreppen. Oder besser gesagt Geroellhalden. Hoch und runter, den ganzen Tag. Immer einen Schritt vor den naechsten setzen, wie ein Roboter ;) Aber irgendwie hab' ich es dann doch geschafft. Die Aussicht war dafuer wieder traumhaft. Wir wanderten durch Regenwaelder mit Wasserfaellen, ueberquerten Fluesse und Baeche auf Haengebruecken und kamen durch mehrere Bergdoerfer. Nach 7 Stunden erreichten wir Pothara, wo sogar eine dieser seltenen heissen Duschen auf uns wartete :)
Der Sonnenuntergang war wieder wie aus dem Bilderbuch. Von hier hat man den Blick auf die ganze Annapurna Bergkette.
