Day Two - part 2

After tea, Devin and I took a quick walk over to see the Shira caves which in the past were used by groups to cook and sleep in (now this practice is prohibited).


We also sat on the rocks and watched the sunset. Words cannot describe how beautiful it is up here.






All tucked into bed now and ready to sleep. Just had another tasty meal including fried bananas and Nutella for desert. Yum, yum!! Said hello on the podcast tonight. We are really having a fantastic time and we are both still feeling great. Camp tonight is at about 12,400 feet - a new altitude record for me. Took our blood oxygen and pulse before dinner today. I was 94% saturation (90s = excellent, 80s = good, 70s = fair) and a resting pulse around 82 (typically for an unacclimatized person over 100 is when to start watching more closely).
