Cold and quiet

Today is St. Patrick's day but we won't be having any Guinness or Irish whiskey. Pheriche is bitterly cold and remarkably quiet. It has been snowing intermittently all day with only a couple patients and no one showing up for the lecture.

It is so cold that Arjun started the yak dung fire in the afternoon (usually reserved for after dark) and Jeet made extra tea and popcorn. Since no one showed up for the lecture, we retreated to the nearby tea house for a beer and an attempt at internet access but the connection was poor. Maybe tomorrow.
