Greetings from Tibet!
Thursday, April 13. 2006
Day before yesterday evening we had our team briefing, followed by our traditional dinner on top of Rum Doodle, a great party where it was clear that this team will supply more stories in the next few months 
Now I am on the roof of the Vaishali hotel, trying to get the DSL working. The luggage has been collected, in a few hours we will be off!
We left this morning at 05.15 and beat any traffic that there might have been. The roads were quite clear, and we made good time, only being stopped a few times by the odd (army) roadblock. But generally all went well and quick. A group our size means lomng lines at the border posts, but all went well and everyone and everything is now in Tibet and in good spirit. We are off to dinner now with all old and new friends.
Tonight we stay in Zhangmu, tomorrow we will go to Nyalam, home of the Domesticated Himalayan Hamster!
I hope all is going well and Caption Hanna
is keeping you all up to date with the latest
stories from Ireland ...
Be careful of the hamsters and remind Lorenzo to put in the ear plugs to drown out the steet moggies too !!!
enjoy that roof top hot tub in Nylam and the Chinese resturants with varied menus

FBC's Noel is doing well and even his bike crossed the border so all is well.
Big hug from lovely (...) Zhangmu,
Harry
