pictures from Lily

No time to write except photo captions.



Thrin-lé.


Khandro Déchen.


Bag o' chilies.



Laughing faces with bad teeth.


Robert.


Suicidal dogs.


Druktsal.



Viveka shopping for fabric.


Sanjay, former shoeshine boy, now shoeshine tycoon.


People waiting for a bus that never came. They were supposed to go to Yang-lé-shöd to the Padmasambhava caves but Something Happened and our bus couldn't get here because people were throwing stones at it and there was a big fire in the road as part of some sort of protest or riot. We heard that someone had been run over by a bus and there was a big protest but we also heard that some political leader had been assassinated in prison and that's what it was about. I have no idea if either or both of these stories are true.

Ja-zér and Sonam's daughter Elaia.


Tsül'dzin.

These pictures (and your effort blogging them) are worth several multiples of 111 words each. Thank you Shardröl.

Great pix. Thanks for Sanjay the tycoon. Perhaps AP needs a reporter on events and you can get the gig.
