Lama's not OK. He has a chest infection and a 40degree temperature and is going nowhere. Bugger. We decide to stay in Manang another day.
Go for an acclimitisation walk with Ela to the top of Tangje and also to the 500yr old Braga Gompha. We found another porter for R500/day who looked upto the job bt couldn't speak a word of English!
In the evening the girls and I went to one of the many cinemas here. I say cinema but wooden shack with large screen tv and some benches is more like it. The "cinema" was down so many dark alleys I had already written my will by the time we were led to it. No popcorn either. Or hotdogs. Saw the film Kundun by Martin Scorcese about the Dalai Lama. Not impressed....
