My wife Joan and I celebrated our 65th birthdays (I was born June 10, 1942 and Joan was born June 11, 1942) by going to the Mt. Everest Base Camp in Tibet. We spent the night of June 7, 2007 at the tent village 9 kilometers below the Base Camp.

When I started taking pictures of the sunrise on June 8, I noticed that the entire top of the mountain was a giant cross. It was gone by noon. We later found out that it is only visible a short time of the year and during that time the top of the mountain usually is clouded over by the time the sun is out enough to illuminate the cross, is the sky is clear at all. So the chances of capturing the same pictures are slim if tourists could even go to Tibet, which the Chinese government is not allowing at this time.
