Here we go

Tomorrow is the big day. Here is what the next 48 hours look like. We leave NC for NYC (2 hrs) After a short layover in NYC we board a plane bound for Belgium (8hrs) We layover in Belgium just long enough to fuel the plane then take off for New Delhi (9 hrs) We arrive sometime in Delhi and stay there for about 20hrs We leave Delhi for Kathmandu, Nepal (2 hrs) We arrive Kathmandu, jump on a couple of vans and drive 8hrs west for Pokhara, Nepal We then rest a day, get our gear fitted up and move out for the Annapurna circuit. From that point we will walk for 10 straight days averaging about 10 miles a day. When I get back I'll go straight to the physical therapist! Be in prayer for our bodies and our spirits! Will post again in a few weeks.
