Gangtok

-Baker's Cafe for breakfast - Ran into Megan and Emily and 2 American guys. The American guys had an Indian friend who pointed me towards a dentist. The dentist put my acrylic tooth back on for 300 Rupees (about $7.50).
-Walked to Namgyal Institute of Tibetology. Saw 1,000 year-old texts on Buddha's wisdom teachings. Also saw many Thangka paintings. Saw Allison and Paul there. We walked together to the Deorali Chorten Monastery, with a big stupa w/gold top, and monks chanting. The monks-in-training were not paying attention.
