A few people have asked me about my trip to Nepal.
I hope to complete the Annapurna Circuit, a 3-week trek beginning October 24th.
It will take me to the holy city of Muktinath, and to an altitude of 5416 meters, or 17,769 feet.
Maybe I'm stupid to attempt that altitude. I am required to purchase travel insurance, in case I am so sick that I need to be evacuated by helicopter, or "heli-vacced", as they say. It sounds like something from the Vietnam War.
Of course, I'm scared. That's why I go to the gym every day. Now, I need to quit drinking beer and to prepare my mind with meditation.
Also, I need to go to the doctor and get a subscription for Diamox. It worked in Tibet!
