First Dalai Lama Photos

Here are the first photos from the Dalai Lama's visit here to Mongolia. It's exhilirating to be this close to him, in these ancient temples surrounded by chanting monks. I'm on a quick lunch break, so I'll have more pics and stories to tell tonight. For now, enjoy:

Blessed Burqan! I've been haunting your blog to see when we'd get the first peek... you're so close it's like you could reach out and touch him! I'll shut up now, and let the stories unfold!

Wow---just wow... I hope you are taking in everything about the experience to share with us.

GREAT! I'm happy as if Dalai-lama would be in my own backyard!

Ooh that is just so cool! great photos too
