We arrived at the Feilai Temple on 18h30, the location of our hotel – Shenshan hotel was perfect to see the Meili Snow Mountain, the Mount Kawakarpo is just outside the window!  The weather was so good today, no cloud, blue sky…if there would be a cloud capping on the summit tomorrow morning, it would be better…

The time for sunrise is 8am, people blocked the best shooting place from 7am, chatting in the cold wind, if I could find a cup of hot chocolate drink anywhere…
