We finally made it to the Capitol of the USA. After 14 day, just 2 weeks of walking, we made it. We continued out walk on route 1 and made it across the border of Virginia and into D.C. We decided to eat lunch at a local park. During our break we were interviewed over the cell phone by Radio Free Asia. Most of us spoke, my interview was translated into Tibetan. Our interview can be heard at Radio free Asia.com. We stopped about 3 miles into D.C. and drove over to the home of Chiga and Pema Dorje. They brought us out to an awesome dinner buffet in Alexandria, Virginia. We all stuffed our stomaches and than headed over to the home we are staying at tonight and tommorow. Thanks again Chiga and Pema Dorje for the food and hospitality. I am now typing this from the home of Lhadan and Dechen Gyaltso, they are allowing us to sleep in their beautiful home in Virginia for tonight and tommorow night. Very generous, thanks again. Thanks again everybody for posting. And Angie, thanks for the support, I have seen your posts too. Tell James I said hi.
