Summer in Tibet felt like I was stuck in a traditional Chinese landscape painting. I saw the mountains that Mom painted. I saw the little houses that she had added beside the fading watercolor cliffs. I even saw animals that she didn't paint. Next time when I go to Tibet again with Mom, maybe she'll add in the animals in her next painting. I think after my photographs were taken, they aren't mine anymore. I want to give them as a gift to my mother. A few weeks ago when I was cleaning out my room, I saw 2 books that were an introduction to traveling in Tibet, with pages that opened up to long maps. Had I known that traveling to Tibet was one of Mom's biggest wishes, I would've experienced my first time in Tibet with Mom. Now I know why Mom was sort of quiet when I told her about how fun Tibet was.
