I did see some Tibetan people with extraordinarily long hair wound up around their heads. And I've always been too much a fuddy duddy for the kind of Spring Break memories that you imply.

I am confused. One of the most obnoxious things about our China trip was the fact that I couldn't speak Chinese. Which made me feel bad because Liz had to do all the work, and I was just a gawper. Oh well. There was a lot to gawp at. In thinking it all through long after the fact, I guess I am not the best traveler.
