'Cruising

Landcruiser'ing Lhasa to Base Camp

We took four days from Lhasa to Base Camp, including one rest day for proper acclimatization.

4, 6 and 8 Sept

Did I tell you I love my new camera; it is hard to choose the shots, Tibet is so photogenic. Here are a selection taken on the road; shots where I challenged myself.

Bob and Hans, and myself with the beast; Clive also in the reflection.

Even well-maintained Landcruisers sometimes break down; here our driver (whose name escapes me) ties up the steering shock absorber. He fixed it properly at lunchtime.

Cruising! L-R: Jamie, Clive, Walter and the driver.
We travelled in two new model Landcruisers, both drivers were safe and really good guys.
