Well…the title was supposed to be ‘This Made Me Giggle’…but the damn computer flipped into Mandarin, so i decided to leave it as it was (hope your comp has mandarin font loaded!).
Anyway…this did make me giggle…

This is the message i got when i tried to play a video on Google Video!
Thanks to Callum (new window) for setting me up with a secure tunnel to his UK server…allowing me to browse the web unrestricted like a happy little bunny!

Tibetan adventures certainly didn’t stop there! We eventually made it to Ya Ding Nature Reserve - which we heard was ’shangri-la’ (the Chinese love this word, and everything in the area seems to be called shangri-la…including one not so nice town!). It was quite hard to get there…but once we arrived we found it to [...]

Went up a mountain yesterday with 4 monks (one of whom had just shaved my head the day before) as they performed some kind of ceremony on a sacred part of the mountain…then nipped across to the mountain next door for a picnic of yak meat, bamboo, pig skin, cucumber and local bread. What a [...]

I should really be giving my locations around China in vertical measurements, rather than where i am in the country…since i seem to be going up and up!
I started off in Chengdu at 500m above sea level, moved to Luding at 2100m, then to Moxi at around 2400, then onto Kangding at 2900m and have [...]

Unfortunately, being the middle of summer…and rather a lot of sun…there wasn’t so much ice on the glacier that i eventually trekked up to.
