Annapurna Base Camp, originally uploaded by crassus08.

Firstly this is not a picture that i have taken. But well i did come up to this place in 2002. It was a big group of us and we were really low morale when we reached the base camp.

It was terribly cold; there were raining sheets of ice and the wind was chilling to the bone. I was wearing my long johns inside my trek pants and down-jacket already and i was still feeling cold! The gloves weren't doing much help as i had to grab on to certain places when i had to climb, and well those places felt wet! Thus wearing those gloves were like burying your hands in ice?

Haha but were we so glad when the Bunsen burner was switched on beneath the tables in the lodge. Then SZ surprised all of us with Bak Gwa from Singapore! Wow! Was really a morale booster.

Then after sharing with everyone, including the guides, there was nothing left. So it was my turn and i took out snicker and Toblerone Chocolate! Haha then they said that i am really like Doraemon.. bag so small but yet contains so many things... and everything needed was like all coming from me.. heh heh..

See how it helps if you know how to pack your stuff? :p
