i seriously now have a bag full of electronics unwilling to work. a nokia cell phone that refuses to reconfigure to the indian network, and now a laptop that crashed, and all the bits and pieces that go with a laptop.
it really sucks. having a laptop actually saves me a lot of money because i don't have to pay to use a computer. enough complaining for now.
i am becoming really good friends with a monk. we chat for up to 4 hours everyday. he also has us over for breakfast every morning and we are teaching him how to cook a bit. the whole trade is fun.
also we are beginning to slowly unravel dorjee's story. he has met the dalai lama 3 times. when he crossed from tibet to nepal he said his face turned black from frost bite. the whole trip took 15 days and everybody in his group made it.
zoe is well. next week will be taking a chinese class for 30 rupees an hour, awesome!
anyways, we will continue to try to get my laptop fixed but I probably will not blog as often for a while. if it proves the laptop is hopeless we will get a new on in hong kong. have i mentioned we are going to china yet?
oh yeah, this morning we both played cards with our monk friend before breakfast. i got a picture of it, awesome! may be a while until i get pictures on flickr too, damn. we're making pancakes tomorrow.

i'm so happy you've found a way to take some chinese lessons -- and amazed by these friendships you guys are developing. what unbelievable stories your friends have. i continue to be amazed by how much you're both learning on this adventure!
