I've been back home from my trip through the Himalayas for a few days now and have sort of been disconnected from the interweb for a few reasons. Firstly, my cable modem conveniently crapped out while I was gone and I had to wait for a Rogers tech to come out. Secondly, as if I didn't put my body in enough physical stress on a 12-day trek up to Everest Base Camp, I decided to play ultimate for 3 days straight immediately after I got home. My body hates me and it wants to sleep.

Rather than documenting our Everest Base Camp trek day-by-day like I did last year with Kilimanjaro, I'm going to tap into the 600 or so pictures I took on my trip and present some of my favourites. If you'd like to see all of my pictures in all their glory, head over to flickr and enjoy!

Otherwise, here's "People of the Himalayas":
