wojsko i policja wkolo, jakos nie widze szans zeby sie Tybet wyswobodzil w najblizszym czasie, Chiny daja wyrazny sygnal kto tu rzadzi

3 days in the capital of Tibet
we are accompanied by Piunzou, the guide - that is a government requirement since 2008 ( where some mass protests took place in Lhasa, Free Tibet and so on) Policemen and army-men are everywhere around , I am afraid that is a clear sign and Tibet may not be free for a while , it all looks really serious here, we are advised not to take pictures in the center as army is confiscating cameras
we have 5 degrees at night in our room in the hostel, Charlyn is heating the sleeping bags with hairdryer, we have hats and scarfs on , brrr
Lhasa is laid on 3600m which means that symptoms of the altitude sickness may / or should already occur ; we all have headaches coming and going , but that is not bad, nobody throws up , symptoms are mild
we are checking out hidden corners of Lhasa, our guide is a funny dude, time goes nice in a city that has saved lots of uniqueness and authenticity despite of the strong presence of Chinese army forces
