I'll try to remember to take a pic while I'm up there. Sounds luxurious.

And to make the suspense even greater, I'll add this:
Our driver brought up a nice porcelein toilet seat when he came to pick us up.
I looked at it, and asked him what he was going to do with it. He said they were going to install it in one of the outhouses.
I'd love to see a picture of it installed. It may be nicer than the crapper I have in my condo.

As for your girlfriend getting HAPE.. That is a scary thing, did she have any symptoms while climbing, did she summit, or turn around before hand? I've been in those shoes, and I never want to be in them again.. Glad she made it home okay!
