Today’s Highlights

October 11th, 2007

seeing everest from the plane was amazing. it stands above the clouds and you cant even believe what you’re seeing.kathmandu is a riot of color, sound, chaos and confusion; its like the bar in star wars. the hotel is great. our schedule is already nuts. driving through the streets in our bus…an outdoor barbershop on the side of the road, baboons, and apparently no traffic rules whatsoever.

flew in with the colorado contingency and slim jim. heading back to collect mike and the uk musicians.

and, if anyone flys thai air in the near future, check the seat pocket in front of you. if you find a black video ipod with a ton of bruce and jay-z on it, its mine. well, my pack is that much lighter.

    Sounds like a really cool experience! Have a great trip. Sorry about your ipod, but if you give the airlines a call asap you just may be lucky enough to get it back. Take care.

    Just wanted to tell you the video & pics are awesome. Been watching everyday & we’re looking forward to seeing the concert when it’s up. Hope all your efforts & hard work have brought love hope & strength to those battling this horrible disease and their families too. Me & the girls walked today for Breast Cancer & I was truly amazed by the strength of the many survivors & also saddened by the many reminders of those who lost their battle. We walked in memory of Lori and know she is smiling down on all of you! Hoping all your love hope & strength finds a cure!

    Eager to read more. Hope all is well. I’d say hang in there, but that can’t be the right word; so I’ll just say “cheers.”

    Be safe.
