May 4 - rest day in Kathmandu

I made it to the Rum Doodle Bar.....which according to legend is located at 40,000 1/2 feet!!!  This used to be the local bar where all the mountaineers gathered, and the tradition is that everyone who summits Everest, they get a free meal and then document their achievement on a yeti footprint card that then gets displayed.  Well a few years ago they moved...and although they also moved all the yeti footprints they are now hanging in groups from the ceiling.   Impossible to find a particular one.  Plus many people who trek also fill one out....so there are hundreds hanging from the ceiling.  I spent about 30 min looking but was unable to find ours.  I stayed and enjoyed a cool beer on a hot day.
