Day at the barber
29 April 2005    
Everyone needs to look good, especially here!
Today was a grooming day for most of us. Some more than others! Mike, our expedition leader, opted for the simple trim, while others opted for the full shave!
We have one more rest day planned and our team 2 - Paul, Kat, Rob and Dan, are nestled in at Camp 1. Our Sherpas report higher winds near Camp 2 and 3 but we are hopeful that all will be well for our move up the hill day after tomorrow.

All the best from the AC team.
