Alexander Abramov from Everest Expedition: The first team of "scouts" arrived in Kathmandu

The first team  arrived in Kathmandu: Alexander Abramov, Sergei Larin and Vladimir Kotlyar.

Here we were met by Gelu Sherpa Mingma, our permanent sirdar, and my daughter Lena.
We found out that tomorrow a big strike begins in Nepal, which will last 3 days. Therefore, our Sherpas, who prepared an expedition for a couple of months, tonight with the entire load, 5 trucks, go to the border of Tibet and tomorrow will cross the border.
Yay! The expedition begins!
