Day 3 , 17th<\/sup> November 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We planned to stay at Namche for acclimatization to avoid mountain sickness. So, we\nplanned to go around Namche Bazar. After having our breakfast at hotel, we went\nto museum. It was an informative tour for me as there were lots of things to\nsee. We came to know about the history of Namche, Khunde and Khumjung village\nand how few people worked to save the environment and develop the Namche . The\npictures there showed how the glaciers have changed in last few decades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

After visiting Museum, we went to Everest view point which\nis 300 meter up from Namche. The uphill was challenging. After an hour walk we\nreach Syangboche aiport. From this place the walking route was not that hard.\nWe easily reach at a hotel at the top from where we could see Everest\n(8,848m), Lhotse (8,516m), Ama Dablam (6,812m). We stayed there for an\nhour and had our lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After having lunch, Ajay wanted to return back to Namche. He\nwas like \u201c I am done, I will stay at Namche and you guy go to gokyo tomorrow\u201d.\nMe and Dil planned to go Khumjung and Khunde. I had plan to visit Kunde\nHospital and meet Dr. Kami as he had already visited my clinic Orthopedica when\nhe was in Kathmandu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Khumjung was downhill from the view point. Had a wonderful\nview of Amadablam on the way. On the way we can see Sir Edmund Hillary school,\nat places People were working on the fields. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From khumjung we walk toward Khunde. We went to Khunde Hospital, since it was Saturday I could not meet Dr. Kami . <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a Garden at the hospital in the name of Mr. Zeke o\u2019Connor.I have met Mr. Zeke as he also had visited my center few years back. He is founderof Sir Edmund Hillary Foundation Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the way back to Namche, we went to a tea house and had\npotato bread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Khunde we came to Syangboche and downhill to Namche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we reach Namche, we met Mr. Ajay on the way who was\nwalking with few of fellow trekker we met on the way at Phakding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These trekker convince him that he should give it a try to Gokyorather and returning back from Namche. Thanks to these people who encourageAjay. He was mentally ready for next day walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
