Tibet: Lhasa Saint Swan Hotel

We came back from 林芝 。 It was a little cloudy. But in fact, the beautiful senes were different from what we saw yesterday given the clouds. There was nothing much to talk about except for the last stretch of the journey. Our driver pulled over as soon as we saw the group of nuns who were kowtowing to Lhasa. We all thought there was something wrong with the car as it did happen a few times on the way. But when the driver opened the trunk I grew suspicious. He instead picked up a large box. It was a box of pears that he bought for the nuns! It's taken them about seven months to be where they are and they will need to go one more month. I was deeply moved at the scene. And happily they agreed to take pictures with us. I promised to send them these pictures. I am sure I will.

Then when we are back in Lhasa, Xiao Ke Yang brought us to either corner street. I bought some more gifts for people: they are two bracelets, two bags, teacup cushions, etc. I still cannot forget about the nuns. May peace be with them.
