ok... so... yay! yay! yay! yay! yay! tibet did, in fact, reopen april 5... so we're all systems go! actually, it's just kind of hitting me that this is really *finally* going to happen... i think i so had this overplanned last year and then was so disappointed, that i didn't want to get all a-twitter and then have to cancel again... anyhoo, water - bridge... :)
NOW, i've got to get off my duff and get my chinese visa next week... and book my hotel...
sadly, the lhasa rumor mill ;) is reporting that my intended lodgings, the kirey hotel, may be no more... so, it's looking like the yak hotel will be my home for two-plus weeks...
the *real* tragedy is that tashi II, the yummiest place in town, might also be gone... WHAT? you mean i have to go to the other side of town to tashi I for dinner? harrumph! ;)
and, bonus, my oft-emailed but never actually met friend, brian (who does some *really* great work for the jatson chumig school, where i'll be volunteering for two weeks), will be in lhasa around the same time so it looks like i've got a rambling around buddy... cool...
excited!
