Is there a significance to the butter offerings?

MORE! MORE!

[chilets]

It's an offering to Buddha for blessings. Marami akong kwentong Christiano sis. Chat tayo minsan. I will reserve the public kwento to pure sightseeing and kwela.

I will make more Tibet kwento tomorrow.

wow! the trip must have been fantastic! and i can't imagine how it must be with 10PM and there still being daylight! parang mainit coz of the clothes you wore, but that yak was covered in fur, and the monks were really balot, and you were in tibet? and the altitude was high? so you were just making tiis?

[chilets]

Lhasa was warm to hot during the day and cool at night. As we went up to higher altitude it became cooler. You really have to be smart about the clothes you pack. Puedeng alone or puedeng i-layer. While I was hiking up to Base Camp, naka-long underwear and three layers of clothes na ko. Hindi ba halata? Thank you Nike Therma-Fit.

[chilets]

Yes, you were right. Kahit ako'y isang hamak na Ixus lang. Nag-experiment na lang ako sa mga framing-framing at chever.
