My right knee was hurting like hell after yesterday’s decent from Deurali to Bhandar but it seems to have mended overnight and I have started today’s walk along an easy ridge to Kinja.

Kinja has suffered some real devastation during the 2015 earthquake and while the lodges are up and running again most of the other buildings in town are still in ruins.

It’s scandalous that with all the help offered after the earthquake the Nepali Government hasn’t done a damned thing.
