Hi everyone, Just a quick note here to let you know that Bianca is SAFE. She and Paul came down from Camp 2 and through the icefall yesterday morning. It was so great to give them both a HUGE hug.
Now that Bianca is down safely, we can finally say, she really made it! (And I can breathe out!)
Yesterday was a bit of a whirlwind actually, as not long after they came down through the icefall, we managed to organise flights back to Kathmandu. So we scrambled to pack up all of our stuff, Bianca did a couple of quick interviews, we said our goodbyes, and then left.
In Kathmandu, we checked into our hotel and also caught up with a few climbers from the same group. It was sooo nice to sleep in a real bed and have a shower – and I haven’t even been away for nearly as long as Bianca or Paul.
Today also ended up really busy as Bianca was in demand for media interviews!
But in case anyone here hasn’t seen on the media or her Instagram, she is definitely down and safe. She is very tired and has a bit of a cough and blisters on her feet, but otherwise is fine. She’ll post more about her perspective on the climb in the next few days once she has a bit more energy 🙂
