Given our rest day it was time to take on the role of the tourist as we drove to nearby Kibber reputedly the highest inhabited village in the world along a narrow road with terrifying drops on every corner
Our breathless activity included a stop at the village Monastery where we were entertained by the resident Monk - despite having blown his own horn over the years Pete's effort to have a go at the Tibetan Long Horn were rightfully ignored !
Driving back part way we stopped at the amazing Keylong Monastery incredibly perched on a hilltop overlooking the valley
Our personal monk tour tour provided am amazing insight into the building, it's historical Tibetan scrolls and it's history including a visit by the current Dalai Lama !
From Keylong we headed back to Kasa and it's supposed working internet Cafe - in between power outages we soon realised that we'd have better luck communicating with carrier pigeons !
Well rested it was back to camp for dinner and an early evening by 8p.M.
