Arrival in Kathmandu
Hi guys. This is Craig Calonica. It's Sunday August 3rd here in Kathmandu. We arrived in Kathmandu yesterday, August 2nd.
So, I'm here with the rest of the team. I would have to say by the 5th we're going into the Manang region... stay there until about the 20th... come back out. We'll be in touch in the meantime, sending you info secrets now and then, and... that's it. I'll be around. Take care. Good bye.

-- Craig Calonica, Expedition Leader
