I sort of suspected that I might not be able to access Blogspot.com to continue blogging while in Tibet and true enough... Blogspot.com is banned here! The last couple of days I have tried different things - even considered using a differing blogging host but turns out that most of them are inaccessible here. But luckily, after coming back from the Potala Palace today and visiting the Jokhang yesterday, I think obstacles have been dispelled and I found away around the ban. So, I'm back in business now!
We all arrived here in Lhasa safe and sound. A couple of people were not completely jumping around in high spirits the last couple of days but generally I think everyone's doing real well considering the elevation we are at and it is the first time for most of our lungs and hearts! I really do think that taking the train minimized the challenge of having to physically adapt in a matter of a couple of hours (that's how long it would take to fly from Chengdu to Lhasa).
I'll try to post some photos tonight...also, I've changed the settings so that everyone can just post comments without having to get a Google account to do it.
