'I experienced my first sign of altitude sickness five hours after touch down in Lhasa. The splitting headache was giving me first time experience of how importance oxygen is to our body. Fortunately, I prepared myself with the local medicine "hong jin tian" and it didn't kill the pain completely but it does relief a though. Eventually I have to depend on the western medicine - Pain Killer to keep myself alert! I must complement the handsome and caring local guide - "Gao Qiang" who always check on the group of tourists to ensure we are doing fine. A doctor was on standby in the hotel to tackle our altitude sickness. A good rest has helped to adjust myself quite fast to the altitude sickness but the appetite seemed to be lost. Anyway, my priority to Lhasa, Tibet is to experience the scenery and not the food.' 'In Lhasa, the ^relatively humane city^ in Tibet, although the temperature may exceed 29 degrees C (84 degrees F) in summer, it can also plummet to minus 16 degrees C (3 degrees F) in winter! Solar radiation is ^extremely strong^ in Tibet. The sunlight in Lhasa is ^so intense^ that the city is called Sunlight City. The ^thin Tibetan air can neither radiate nor absorb heat^, resulting in temperature extremes during both day and night.' coming from the tourism web. interesting. 'Although southern Tibet is balmy during May through October, most rainfall also comes during this season between June and September. Heavy rains during the nights block roads and make travel difficult.' ................ 'Caroline and JP had taken altitude pills, because they had always had some breathing problems and asthma. Richard and I didn’t, so we were both a little bit worried about the issue…but after a few hours we were feeling much better. I mean, we and even people having the pills, were able to feel the altitude all the time we were there, we didn’t feel as fit as usually, we were really easily exhausted and without breathing and our hands were a little bit blow up…' in august, max temp's 25.5C in the day, and the night, 5.5 C. if i die, i'm gonna haunt ms lee first, for rejecting me a hug. kidding =) check this out: http://sosspiritual.tripod.com/Englow/Lspiritualism_and_science.htm http://sosspiritual.tripod.com/Englow/Lspiritual_practice.htm sounds freaky, but i've witnessed it. and... confirmed it's freaky.
