Today was regular day of classes in the morning. In the afternoon we went to a local Monistary up in the hills. It was a very butiful place about 10 miles from town not to far from the mounton we hicked earler in the summester. During our time there we were able to be around some of the munks as they started a recited prayer service and took a look at how they made there bread. They had used a car axel in part of the process of mixing the bread up wich was very interesting. Then we wen out to the cemetary were we saw how they bary there dead. They have stone balled plots where the put there dead for 3 years befor diging them up and then put and lable there scols in a building near by and put the rest of the boans in an other bind. Another thing that was intersting was the main chaple in the middle of the monistary. It was coverd with paintings on the walls that are still in progress. Tacked about 40 years to compleat them depicting seands of scripture. The munks had built the buildings them selves and were very in preceve and had lots of injenuity that was used. One of the large shandilers could be lowerd and rased for cleaning and lighting of the candles.
When we arived back at campous I lisond to a book for tomaro and then layed down for a nap. I was zonked out and woke up in dilshinal days about 15 min after dinner started. Meanderd on down and got some food as I slowly woke up. Then did home work rest of the night till went to bead about 1:00 am.
