EveRRest 2022 - The quest for Base Camp!

Final preparations are underway. We've had lots of flight changes over the last two days but thanks to the persistent people at Intrepid we are sorted again and great news, plane fans, we are on a Dreamliner for the first leg of the outbound flight, which has cheered Vicki up no end.  Steve and Vicki went to visit Reuben's Retreat last week.

Get our visas, trekking permits, phone SIMs and duffel bags and hopefully a bit of sleep. Monday 27th -

I've bought things I never thought I would - some water-fr
