I managed to sleep 11 hours last night which was amazing considering how cold it was. Really it was like -3 degrees in my opinion, don't think I've ever slept anywhere like it, but it did the job so I'm not complaining. That 11 hours also didn't include having to get up for the toilet. It's only 7.30am just now so I don't want to get my hopes up... But :) We started day 2 of our trek with breakfast cooked by our guide... I just stuck to dry bread so I could ...

I was still awake until 2.45am this morning, tossing and turning, it was a nightmare knowing I had a big day ahead today and not being able to sleep.

Look on the bright side I say :) Yup you guessed it... another horrendous night, didn't sleep very much since someone was still stabbing my stomach with knifes :( We didn't leave the hotel until 8.30am this morning so it was a more sociable hour of the day. We had two mini buses ...

Ok so last night was horrendous. I was up 4 times during the night and I didn't sleep well at all.
