29 July 2006 * Ganze
Today we went by Di-Se breadloaf van from Dege to the breathtakingly beautiful Yilhun Lhatso.
Then we went to Maniganggo (for lunch) and on to Ganze.
Much much seen and experienced…but no time to write. However…an example of "ChinaWeird", Ganze style:
Beizha, Jrana, Tsering, Trado and his brother, Tara, Tessa and I have come to a noodle dive on a crappy Ganze street. It’s an open-wall restaurant, with a loud loud compressor-generator blapping from a nearby street deconstruction project. The restaurant TV is showing King Kong, dubbed in Chinese. We’re waiting at a skungy table for large bowls of noodles…all of us transfixed as King Kong bests 3 vicious T-Rexes. Beggars enter the restaurant, playing some sloppy Be-wong music for 5 jiao. Strange Ganze-Khampa-Chinese passers-by are trolling the busted streetside. On the refrigerator, a poster of various kinds of ice cream bars. ChinaWeird strikes again!!!
