Day 16

MBC to ABC, Annapurna base camp 4300m   New Years Day



Snow! We woke up to a dusting of snow, and more snow falling...by the time we got to ABC it was snowing hard and we couldn't see a thing.  Around lunch time it looked like it was going to brake so took a walk to the glacial moraine but the storm got worse and what stared as a walk turned in to a full Himalayan Expedition...well it felt that way...snow blowing, wind howling, sinking into snow drifts up to our knees, not being able to see the trail...but we made it back safe to the guest house and stayed warm all the rest of the day.  Good thing too because the snow kept falling and falling and falling...
