   Today is a day to get used to the high altitude so that our bodies can get used to it. But that doesn't mean we don't do anything! The best way to get used to the altitude is to do things.

   You can spend a few hours hiking around the area or visiting the school Sir Edmund Hillary built in the Khumjung village as a thank you to the Sherpas for helping him climb Mt. Everest successfully.

   Some of the mountains you can see today are Kwangde (6,011m), Thamserku (6,623m), Kangtega (6,782m), Nuptse (7,861m), Lhotse (8,516m), Ama Dablam (6,812m), and, of course, Mount Everest (8,848m).
