    Chontelle and I with our 'flower' tea ~ our first morning in Lhasa. The stuff is gorgeous ~ literally flowers, and rock sugar, with hot water poured overtop. A little too sweet, though.: by lolo, Views[605]
         		 Sitting in a doorway at Sera Monastary....resting after a long, long walk uphill.: by lolo, Views[482]
         		 Hanging out at Sera Monastary....a very cool place, with crimson robed monks wandering around, whitewashed walls, and a general sense of peacefulness.: by lolo, Views[680]
         		 Painted deities adorn a rock at Sera Monastary: by lolo, Views[626]
         		 The view from the airport waiting room ~ mountains surrounding the tiny airport, and an empty spot where the plane should be.: by lolo, Views[537]
     
    Prayer flags EVERYWHERE at the Drepung Monastary outside of Lhasa.: by lolo, Views[596]
         		 At Sera Monastary ~ it was a gorgeous day, and I fell far behind everyone else as I stopped to take pictures of everything.: by lolo, Views[1787]
         		 This woman was more than happy to have her picture taken....she just wanted to SEE it afterwards, is all.: by lolo, Views[550]
         		 Looking down on the street, as we left the restaurant, we saw all these amazing people hanging out, playing music ~ just enjoying the day. I still love seeing all those babies strapped to their mothers backs.: by lolo, Views[548]
         		 The Chinese memorial to the 'liberation' of Tibet, more than 50 years ago. Conveniently located directly opposite the Potala ~ I suppose we can be grateful theres no statue of Mao ~ yet.: by lolo, Views[559]
     
    Walking the Barkhor kora ~ a place full of interesting faces and characters.: by lolo, Views[532]
         		 Devout pilgrims out front of the Jokhang, polishing the paving stones with their prostrations.: by lolo, Views[556]
         		 Out front of the Jokhang, there are two massive prayer poles, covered with flags. As the pilgrims make their way around the Barkhor Kora, they stop to touch foreheads to the poles ~ this woman made sure her infant was participating, too.: by lolo, Views[555]
         		 The scene out front of the Jokhang ~ one of the prayer poles can be seen in this shot, as well as monks and pilgrims (and tourists?) wandering around.: by lolo, Views[1598]
         		 Spinning the prayer wheels at Drepung Monastary, about 7km out of Lhasa. This was literally one of the best days I had in Tibet ~ beautiful sunny weather, a great hike, and friendly people.: by lolo, Views[492]
     
    The woman who sold me my little prayer wheel ~ the stall is one of the zillions lining the barkhor kora around the jokhang.: by lolo, Views[456]
         		 A monk sitting beneath a tree as we exited the Potala was kind enough to grant us permission to take pix.: by lolo, Views[442]
         		 Spinning a prayer wheel, shielded from germs by the mask ~ a man makes his way around the Potala kora.: by lolo, Views[430]
         		 Prayer flags fluttering in the wind, high above Drepung Monastary.: by lolo, Views[426]
         		 This young monk led us around the kora at Drepung Monastary, taking the time to show us where we were meant to pray (touching our foreheads to holy rocks, and the like....) as well as posing for pictures for us. : by lolo, Views[574]
