Today we went to the Dalai Lama's teachings in the morning. Then on to the Internet cafe to send this report.
There are long lineups for the six computers since many people have swelled the town's population. Roads are closed and security is tight.
Yesterday one more truck arrived with mattresses and pillows and pillow cases. Four more truckloads are expected to complete delivery of all the sheets and pillows. I have some video but can't upload it here.
In the dorms, all the old beds, mattresses, and blankets have been removed and many of the new beds have now replaced them. We will put the bed, mattress, and comforter into the rooms and then at the distributions on Sunday and Monday will give the children the pillows, pillow cases, and comforter cover. We hope to be able to send some photos if we can, but may be working too late in the day to make it to the Internet cafe on Sunday.
Today's picture shows the old beds being piled up outside the dorms this week. Lama Tashi is planning to reuse the iron to make tables and bookshelves for the school. Nothing is wasted.
We enjoy reading your comments.
