Everest. What a big word. Our adventure started off with a bang. I woke up today (happy birthday!) feeling pretty…. ill. This didn’t bode well for the million hour long plane ride to where diarrhea is imminent. Great. Anyways, me and Willie somehow managed to get ourselves into the Delta “crown room”, its not that cool, and then proceeded to miss our flight. We were on standby for the next one, and managed to take the last two seats. After arriving in LAX, we spoke to a short asian lady about our plane to Thailand. “we sowwy, no mo room on dis pane.” Our first asain encounter. We argued with her, and managed to get 2 business class seats. The lady had to lead us through security to where the plane was already boarding. She directly reminded me of the little suit designer from “The Incredibles”. Here on the busride to the plane, we met up with Damian and Gene. Gene is the other client. From Colorado, he has already climbing the seven summits. We settled down to a nice long ride to Bangkok. Who names a city Bangkok??
