Rain July 19th, 2013


We woke to rain this morning (only our third day of rain in three weeks), but that didn't stop us from driving up to Snow Mountain and Yak Meadow.   
Our driver drove us to the park and from there mountain buses take over for a twenty minute  drive up the mountain.  Again, it was hairpin turns making me very uncomfortable.  I don't know if the leaning to one side and hiding my eyes help, but it makes me feel better.

When the buses went as far as they could, chair lifts took over.  A twenty minute ride took us to the top of Snow Mountain.


The rain stopped long enough to allow the fog to roll in and for us to walk up to a small monastery, along with seeing the wild yaks in he pasture.






We met all kinds of characters today...some at the mountain top and some at a small village we visited on the way home.
