Skype Video-conferencing in Sherpa Country! B^)

It was a beautiful Thursday morning in Sherpa Country! B^)

Eric Talman of the Satellite Phone Store and I connected by Skype (www.skype.com) via the BGAN satellite Modem. The Dell Mini Inspiron was mating with the Hughes 9201...wirelessly! B^)

We captured a video of the session...and when Chris mirrors this dispatch in the Secret Spot Seven Summits blog (www.phillmichael.com) on Thursday, April 30th...that video will be included.  Click the link below labeled 'DOWNLOAD' to watch!!

Phill Michael and the Sherpa of Gorakhani, Nepal video-conference with Eric Talman...via Skype and the Immarsat/BGAN satellite network! You HAVE to check this out! =^o

Eric was able to meet Dawa, Urgen and some neighbours in real time. How cool is that?! B^]

You NEED to surf on over there and check it out. Those of you who are subscribed to the blog will get notification, by email, as soon as the video is posted.

Subscribe!!!! It's good for the Agency. =^]

The Goats of Shangri La in July 2007. They are still here...munching away amongst the human vegetarians. =^P

It's time to head a little higher. I'm on a Mountain High here at 9000ft. The little Fishy knows what I mean...=^]

We are going to head up to Pike Pass...the cheese factory...THE Monastery...and probably the summit of Pike Peak (over 4000m/13120ft).

It will take a few days to cover that ground...but we should be back to Urgen's on Sunday...as we need to get back to KTM by mid-next week to be part of Team Phuri.

I distinctly remember taking this picture 20 months ago and promising myself I would video-conference from here one day...=^]

I'll have my expedition communications technology with me for this coming excursion...so I'll be beaming sweet goodness at YOU daily.

Enjoy! B^]


Until Soon
Phill =^)
