All of my Tibet posts were removed from my blog sometime in 2013 - but I was lucky enough to have found my drafts in my old files. I will probably edit them a little differently - but at least they will be in my blog
Potala Palace - that climb was way more challenging than the lighthouse. I had started taking my altitude pills a couple of days before but it was really, really hard - But I MADE it. Beautiful and worth it. Never knew that besides all the monks that live there there are lots of monks buried there - the tombs are unbelievable - the 5th thru the 13th head guys are entombed with lots of jewels and gold decorating their tombs.
