We started out at 8:30am and finally reached our destination at 4pm. It was a very long and difficult drive. It is windy and bumpy and I am in the backseat. I am actually surprised that I am not getting car sick.
We did make a few stops and saw two Fortresses. They were something to see. I arrived in time to join the chanting, which is so peaceful. The overall scenery was breathtaking, so I am definitely glad we did the trip to the central area of Bhutan.
I met a few people from CA. It as nice to talk, although I am really glad I am not with a group. I customized my tour and listening to their itinerary, I am glad I did.
I am learning a lot about Bhutan. There was a very ecentric Llama, who used sexual conduct to make a point about attachment. Based on that, many of the buildings have penises on them. They are not just penises, they are hairy penises. Need I say more.
Not much more to say other than I finished my bottle of wine when I arrived. It was a long day and tomorrow we hike to the stuppa.
Namaste, Paula
