The next day we arrived in Dingri, the supposed staging point for our trek to the Everest Base Camp. Our guide took us to meet his mother-in-law. She was a sweet, if slightly near-sighted lady who mistook Alison for her daughter. It was here where we also were introduced to the Yak Butter Tea etiquette. The host shows his or her hospitality by refilling your cup after every sip. Good thing Yak Butter Tea grows on you.
