Tibet and Everest

Views from the train.








Elle celebrated her birthday in Lhasa and was treated by a local chef to a cooking lesson. She leared how to make a Tibetan momo which is a Yak meat dumling that tastes alot like a tiny taco to me. Delicious! After a few days in Lhasa we answered a note to go on a six day land cruiser trip around Tibet ending up at the Mt Everest base camp. As we were reading the post two girls came up see who was reading there message and we all started talking and we sealed the deal. The trip was through some large mountains staying in a couple of small towns along the way and eventually camping in tents at the Everest base camp. The roads were spectacular and the envy of any w.r.c. driver and the monastaries were beautiful but the highlight for us was staying at the base camp.
