!!!!! The entry I have been waiting for. *____* Beautiful landscape, beatiful puppies, beautiful architecture...I <>really want to visit Tibet but really can't in my lifetime because I've a terribly weak heart ¬_¬ Haha did you pass one of those things that you HAVE to go by the right side? (well I read this from TinTin.....)

ugh I can relate about the public bathrooms. Once when we were up north to Haerbin, we stopped at a restaurant and they were like, "please use the corn field! It'll give us more fertilizer!" o_x;;;

No, of course you can! Just ascend slowly, and bring a truck full of oxygen tanks with you.

There were some temples where you are supposed to walk only in a clockwise fashion. It gets really confusing when you momentarily can't figure out what's clockwise. Is that what you mean?

LOL @ fertilizer! :D It didn't come to that, thankfully... but I can imagine what they do with the pit-full-of-you-know-what.

No, they came straight out of Picasa :D And I think it's uncannily easy to take good pictures in Tibet. Maybe it's because the sky is always blue.

Holy cow, amazing pictures! And I love that guy's shoes. :P

Poor you, surviving on the oxygen bags... =( I hope that was just the first day and the second was better.

Thankee :D

Yeah, the first day I had awful headaches and couldn't eat without throwing up. The symptoms faded by the second day, but my mom bought too much oxygen and glucose and made me take all of it anyway, so I ended up kind of high the whole rest of the time. >_>
