Day 11 - Tips and Thanks

Everyone recognized that without the work of the porters and guys running the mules this would have been a horrible trip. These guys worked their asses off to make sure we were comfortable, hydrated and well fed. Tom, our guide (he was pretty much top notch from my standpoint) and the representative from KE Adventure travel wanted to do something nice as a "raffle."

Here Tom and Teresa are hanging out in the tent as folks come in.So, any unwanted or "gift items" were donated by the trekkers and placed into little individual piles, then numbers were drawn to "pick a pile" of stuff. Basically these guys didn't have crap, so I was honored to donate:

• Keva River Sandals
• Nalgene Water Bottle
• Omega Pacific Locking Caribiner
• Mens Capeline short sleeve shirt

Others gave lots of other good stuff too!

Our final dinner, things loosen up considerably. Here is John showing is affection for Jeff. Carol (John's wife) laughed as hard as I did. I think Jeff, liked the attention, and secretly loved the kiss!
