What was worse than three days two nights on the road was, nobody knew exactly when we would reach our final destination.
----
The day before leaving Lhasa, we were contemplating which form of Transport was the most suitable. After experienceing severe altitude sickness when I flew into Lhasa, I decided not to repeat the same mistake again.
Altitude sickness can be deadly. I was terribly ill, the sudden pressure difference between near zero sea level and a rapid decrease of pressure at 3800 meters did not go down well with me.
It took me days to recover, a visit to the Tibetan Hospital included.
