I have taken far too many photos to put them all up on the internet (the connection here is quite slow, and I can only add five at a time). If the muber of photos I have is any indication of the quantity of memorable experiences I've been having, then I have already had more than my share! These photos are primarily of circumnabulation (going in a clockwise circle around the Dalai Lama's house and temple), hiking to a waterfall in Dharamkot, around town, teaching my English class, and one great picture of monks playing badmitton with a view down the valley. The girl above is Rinzin, an awesome lady who I'm rying to help get into college. International admissions to US universities is IMPOSSIBLE (or nearly so). Any advice? Connections? I would appreciate these from anyone! Can't write now, have to run to class. Although one very weird thing happened already this morning: a man with a cazy eyepatch (very 3-d) was lying in the middle of the road, stopping traffic. Everyone around was just staring, and seemed to have no idea what he was doing. Very odd. Most people won't even sit on teh ground here without a cushion or something to protect them from the nastiness taht is all around. A good idea, what with trash and cow and dog poop all over the streets. I have NO idea what was happening there -- don't think it was a protest, as the Tibetan peole I asked were just as curious annd confused as I.
Love,
Emily
