I actually took a cooking class! Here we made different types of Tibitan bread and although they were yummy, I wouldn't expect me to start cooking for you when I return home!

More Dalai Lama
Here in Mc Leod Ganj, the home on the Dalai Lama and around 200,000 Tibitans, along with the the headquarters to what remains of, or is a small government that continues the battle over the infamous area that China took in the 1950's. Although we all know the history of Tibet, I was very happy and lucky to get the opporitunity to be in the presence of the Great Dalai Lama 14th who fled the country as a young man. You can't help but admire his non violent battle for the freedom of Tibet, although it seems as if it is not likely he will ever win.

no way!! You were THAT close to the Dalai Lama - how in the world did you swing that?? Amazing! I have read his book The Art of Happiness back in college. What an inspiring man!
I am envious.....what an incredible experience.
In that one pic it looks like he sneezed.....what did you say? God Bless you? Just curious...was he as good as golfer as Karl said he was in Caddyshack? : ) Kipp-
That's awesome that you were able to actually witness the Dalai Lama! What a great experience to meet such a remarkable man.
