Welcome to my page. This golden girl climbed the Machu Picchu's Inka Trail at 53 and Nepal's Everest Base camp at 54. If you want to know how and why I did it….. then read on. I promised you will enjoy it.

Trek to EBC Day 1 - Terrifying Flight To Lukla
EBC Trek Day 1 - April 10, 2017
Hair-Raising Landing at Lukla Airport in Nepal... I've just experienced the world's most dangerous airport landings, Nepalese Airport, and the incredible and wonderful feeling of seeing the highest point on earth and the world's highest mountains while on air.
The landing and take-off strips here are very short. The airport operates at an altitude of 8,000 feet (2,438m) and has virtually no modern air traffic control features. Not even lights, and very little electric power at all.
We've walked up on a stony paved road that is part of the EBC Trekking Route beside the bob wires that separates us from the airport landing. From above the road, we had a full view of the aircraft landings. Then as we go down the airport road is the Nest Lodge where we had our breakfast while the porters were sorting our bags. They also gave us our trekking permit card with our photo attached to the card like a passport.
Watch the video above to see the rest of the trek.
