No pictures? No more!

January 17th 2009
I have tons of picture to put up but I can't find them on Austin's computer...It's all in Chinese. It turns out that going to Tibet could be impossible. It's too snowy and expensive they say. So we may be heading to Shangri-la instead.


Today we woke up to the roaring of the waterfall next to our hostel and climbed into the car to visit a giant multicambered cave illuminated by multicolored lights. After exploring the cave and getting our fill of pictures we climbed back into the van and headed to a village made of stone where we we told we could buy a home starting at 1000 RMB or 150 USD. They were pretty big, but lacked stability and cleanlieness. After being split up from Carl and Austin I was chased out of the village by a swarm of dogs. Luckly Austin and Carl met up with me at the entrance and we were able to take off to the next site.



After exploring the area we headed to another waterfall and climbed onto a boat which took us into and through a long cave while a woman sang to us and played music for us on a piece of grass... don't worry, it's all on video.












We then switched boats and contined through another cave before turning around and repeating the process. It was spectacular.
I just found out how to load some pictures so I will upload them now.

Can't wait to see the pictures!! So are you saying that you didn't buy yourself a new home, or are you just going to need a broom to go with it?
