Climb for Kid’s Sake Day 5: One CRAZY landing then a hike to Phakding
I was so glad to leave Katmandu and all the unrest in favor of this beautiful Nepalese valley! We headed to the Katmandu airport early this morning, cleared customs and waited for the plane to Lukla. There were 5 airlines flying out the same morning and we waited on the tarmac about 20 minutes for [...]
Climb for Kid’s Sake Day 4: What a day in Kathmandu!
The plan today was to recover from jet lag by enjoying a relaxing tour of Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal and its largest city with about 700,000 people. Hah! Relax! The boycotts involving no transportation and closed business continued today and tension is building between local people and the government parties. We made our way [...]
Climb for Kid’s Sake Day 3: The long journey…
What a trip! Two days of hard travel took me from Calgary to London to Delhi to Kathmandu, Nepal. I am truly in another world! I had quite a layover in London Heathrow airport but didn’t venture out – a train to Buckingham Palace would have cost me about $150! Yikes! It was a big [...]

The African children were thrilled to write [...]
Thank-you from the Linde Orphan’s School!
Wow, time flies! It’s been over a month since I returned from Tanzania and the Linde Orphan’s School. I can’t describe the feeling I had when I drove up to the school and was enveloped by the hugs and love from the children I’ve come to know and love over the past two years. I [...]
