Berlin 05/19/2008 - "A couple of hours before the Dalai Lama's speech before the Brandenburg Gate he went to the 'Reichstag'. There the flags where red, where the police allowed an anti-demonstration, a few dozen Chinese came. Organisator Jia Zhiping called the Dalai Lama a "liar", who simply wants to recover his old power. A poster had written that he should end his "propaganda-tour" and instead should pay attention to the victims of the earthquake.
Altogether there were far less Chinese demonstrators on the streets than in April, when 3000 people participated at a tightly organized pro-China-demo."
It seems the Chinese nationalists learned from the mistakes of the last weeks and that their nationalist offenses in public didn't really help anybody - not even the Chinese communist government. Besides, people should have learned from history and recent events from other parts of the world that nationalism (especially during difficult times) only creates racism (and vice versa) - and this is surely something people should not give in to nor create themselves...
I normally don't click portraits but the gentle features of this lama (monk) at Hemis monastery was captivating. I feel inclined to click someone when they are reluctant subjects. There is no vanity there! :)

Who could not get enough of the blooms on this tree. Was a stop on highway and took shot for the hell of it as they say.

LAMAS DE OLO (Portugal)
Lamas de Olo faz parte do concelho de Vila Real. A antiga freguesia era um curato anual de apresentação do abade de S. Vicente de Ermelo. Esta freguesia está integrada no Parque Natural do Alvão apresentando muito vincadamente as características da forma de vida das gentes que habitam nas encostas da serra. Na aldeia de Lamas de Olo não há pressas e os dias passam devagar. O recolher do gado ao fim do dia é uma das tarefas rurais, a par de muitas outras, como as malhas do centeio, do milho e do feijão, as desfolhadas e as vessadas (em que se prepara a terra para as próximas sementeiras). A matança do porco, a confecção do fumeiro e o fabrico do pão completam o dia-a-dia dos seus habitantes. Em Lamas de Olo, Ermelo e Barreiro ainda é possível encontrar casas tradicionais construídas em xisto, colmo e granito, muitas das quais recuperadas com a colaboração dos serviços do Parque Natural.

The guanaco (Lama guanicoe) is a camelid native to South America, closely related to the llama. Guanacos are one of two wild South American camelids, the other being the vicuña, which lives at higher elevations.
The guanaco gets its name from the Quechua word huanaco (modern spelling wanaku). Young guanacos are called chulengos.
Guanacos stand between 1.0 and 1.3 m (3 ft 3 in and 4 ft 3 in) at the shoulder, body length of 2.1 to 2.2 m (6 ft 11 in to 7 ft 3 in), and weigh 90 to 140 kg (200 to 310 lb). Their color varies very little (unlike the domestic llama), ranging from a light brown to dark cinnamon and shading to white underneath. Guanacos have grey faces and small, straight ears.
Guanacos are one of the largest terrestrial mammals native to today's South America. Other terrestrial mammalian megafauna to weigh similar to or exceed the guanaco include the tapirs, the marsh deer, the white-tailed deer, the spectacled bear, and the jaguar.
Guanacos have thick skin on their neck, a trait also found in their domestic counterparts, the llama and in their relatives, the wild vicuña and domesticated alpaca. This protects their neck from predator attacks. Bolivians use the neck-skin of these animals to make shoes, flattening and pounding the skin to be used for the soles. In Chile, hunting is allowed only in Tierra del Fuego, where the only population not classified as endangered in the country resides. Between 2007 and 2012, 13,200 guanacos were legally hunted in Tierra del Fuego.
