Day 7 of hiking was nominal and short. It only took us about 3 hours to hike back up yo Lukla. We checked I to the guest house. We said our good-bye to our porter Kumar with a $120 for his service. They suggest 10 to 12 per day for the porter. We were hiking 7 days and so tipped a little over $17 per day. The guide, Ross, typically gets 15 to 20 per day. Ross was a good guide despite his deficiency in English but he will be with us about 10 days so will get at least $200.
Nick and I found a 'Scottish Pub' and have spent the afternoon talking. I shared some of my engineering war stories and we talked about his prospects for law school and such.
