Pretty much our last day in Tibet.

We got up from the guest house and drove a long way to Nyalam.  Seemed like we had reached civilization, only really a one street town but it looked so modern.

We ate (yuck more chips), checked into a shitty guesthouse (another shared squatter).

This is our second day without a shower.

On the drive we went to our higest point (5300m) and saw the cave monastery (Milarepas cave).

Our driver (wahaha) had a spiritual moment.  It was quite cool and hidden in the back of a Tibetan village on the side of a cliff.

Drivers went crazy with the polaroids again!

I danced with a little girl on the street.  So cute!  Polaroids for her.

The people in the hotel (guest house) in the morning tried to pay 50Y for one shot!

This one time, my boss invited me and my friend to his beach house and died, and we had to pretend he was alive through a series of pulley systems and sunglasses.
