Paul and Attila are safely back down to camp 2 and Paul’s eyes are much better.
Nick here, in a message just received from Fiona at base camp, relayed by her mother, Marg, Fiona said they were both fine and now safely back at camp 2 and that Paul’s eyes were much better. They plan to leave early tomorrow morning heading for base camp. All being well they hope to arrive at base camp by the middle part of the day (local time).
Thanks so much for the update Nick – even though the summit has passed – we still find ourselves running to the study and clicking the ‘refresh’ button during the course of the evening here in Melbourne – and we don’t even really ‘know’ Paul and Fiona – so happy Paul’s eyes are feeling better and looking forward to seeing teh next update tomorrow and some pic’s!
Well done Paul – you are in the media EVERYWHERE today – a real Aussie hero.

This is great news. Am so glad that Paul’s eyes are much better. Am really looking forward to hearing the story and seeing the photos. FANTASTIC. Phil M
I am glad Paul’s eyes getting better, also that they have not split up… Winning partners:) Paul, Fi if you receive this, pls. let Attila and Reni know that all of you are heroes back in Hungary guys, unbelievable. Very well done. If they are at EBC in safe, Reni or Attila should give at least one interview 🙂 Mira
Hi Paul, and Attila
many congratulations for the climb! Well done and all the best on the final way down through the icefall. I think you are smart enough to cross the dangerours area in the morning coldness. Hope and wish that you arrive tomorrow at basecamp safely.
greetings from the alps Walter
p.s. Could it be that Attila is the first hungarian everest summiter?
Congratulations! We hope Pat and team will not be far behind. Thanks again for allowing us to follow your journeys. Michele and Bill
Paul,
Congratulations! So happy that you made the summit and that your eyesight has improved. Fiona, I can only imagine your relief! Pat is now at C4 and waiting for his final push. I’m on pins & needles.

So pleased to hear this news. Here’s praying that the eyes continue to get better before the final trip through the icefall. How are Sherpa Lhakpa’s eyes doing? *hugs* Kyna + Kiwi mob.
Good news regarding the eyes. One more day Paul then the real hard work starts…….preparing for the trek to Lukla:-)
Good job Paul. Glad you’re back down to relative safety!
