Scattered along the track were Buddhist artefacts, monkeys, cows, colourful stupas, prayer wheels, and hundreds of prayer flags. Went into the Buddhist temple to have a preview for tomorrow. Watched the dalai lama and hundreds of monks chanting - so exciting! lunch at mammas cafe - banana lassi (curd milkshake - so yum), veg momos (dumpling), hot n sour soup. As im eating, theres dogs walking in and out restaurant, cars/motorbikes/tuk-tuks honking their horns, monks walking past talking on mobile phones. The streets are filled with beggars and sleeping stray dogs. I followed some monks down a road ending up in a town called baghsu. at their temple the gongs were ringing and things were sounding official amidst a backdrop of snowy mountains..., and i did not to expect to see a 25m pool with monks doing bomb dives and playing hackie sack. On my way back to town I found a little yoga studio run by an older Indian man with long grey hair. Yay yoga! I came back at 4pm for the 2 hour class with about 8 other people. By 6pm I was all headstanded out excited for the dalai experience tomor...
