Thur 8th Sept - Hi from Lhasa


Lhasa is a beautiful city, low stone houses and surrounded by mountains. These are treeless and some have a green hue from the summer grass. 

Yesterday saw too many chapels and gold covered dalai lama tombs in potala palace. Dark and oppressive despite the butterlamps. The monks interpret the religion for the people.  Made me glad of martin luther and cromwell. 

Short bike ride this afternoon.
