Did you hear the news?

I took this photo from a plane window when I was flying to the capital Kathmandu from Pokhara in Nepal by Sita air. Pokhara, Nepal is known as a place where you can see the panoramic view of Himalayas quite often. There are only 14 independent mountains on Earth that are more than 8,000 meters high and almost all of them are located in the Himalayas and the others are located in the Karakoram in Asia. Those mountans are called the eight-thousanders. A week ago, a Jp alpinist finally conquered an amazing series of climbs. I'm really impressed by his fighting through adversity to accomplish a dream of mankind. Congrats.
