First day, between 2 pm to 5:20pm, we were talking in rain cloud. Every bodies was wet through. The worest thing was that we can't make fire (there were nothing dry). There was no choice, we have to wear our heavy wetted boots tomorrw. Following other people, keeping myself slow, calm and treathing deeply, I know that I am not young and fit any more as 15 years ago. David, he worked in Old Moth Camp. I paid my respection with my cigarette. After share cigarettes and Scotch, he gave me some warm soup (milion dollar worth in that night), also many tips. In next 5 days he became my guide.
