Summit week

We have been relaxing and eating at Chinese base camp for long enough.The word is that there should be a break in the weather next Thusday and Friday.Based on this prediction we left basecamp for advanced basecamp about two days up.From there we will go to camps one and two,where we will wait for the break in the weather.Fromther we go to camp three,erect the tent and rest and drink tea,try to eat and sleep for a while.At 9.00pm we will start for the summit.All going well we will take down camps 3&2 on the way down,and take them with us.This is being written by my father based on our sat phone conversations.I will try to keep him updated,so keep checking this site. Thank you for your interest,and hopefully I'll see you soon,Blair
