bed. As we had a long day and will have a longer one tomorrow. We
left Chengdu on time at 1 p.m. sharp. The drive was okay but a little
longer than usual. We only reached Dartsedo around 8 p.m. Since the
drive was very smooth, we all slept a little bit in the bus probably
missing some beautiful scenery (the "amazing" sceneries are for
tomorrow!)
First thing we did was to buy the bus tickets to Kandze. We payed 11€
each and are leaving tomorrow at 6 a.m. for a 12 hours drive. The we
went to search for an hotel.
We are staying at the Tai Ning Buisness Hotel, a chinese hotel 5
minutes away from the bus station. It's a little expensive (16€ per
double room) but it was difficult for us to start searching for an
hotel with our bags on our shoulders. The good thing is that there
are two computers in the lobby and that the girls were able to check
their hotmail. Myself I'm able to connect trough the telephone in the
room and the Apple USB 56K modem. I'll will try to upload one picture
but I'm not sure of the time it will take.
After dropping our bags in the room we went for a short walk in the
city. It was already night time but most of the shops were open and
bright lights were shinning on the streets. We didn't went very far
as we were hungry. We had dinner at a Tibetan restaurant. Tenzin had
momo (of course) and we had noodles. If you don't know what a Tibetan
momo is, use Gooogle ...
I was able to upload three pix on Flickr, have a look at them.
I have no idea if I'll be able to connect in Ganze. So maybe it is my
last post before our return here on August 15th. But hopefully, I'll
be able to give you news earlier.
It's time for bed.
Love to all of you!
