luang prabang babies

Some of them were sleeping, some of them were moody and some were quite outgoing. Nevertheless, babies are always a joy to watch. Their smiles and laughter are music to my ears. © 2006 daddywasabi, all rights reserved.

offerings

During my visit to Luang Prabang, I noticed that aside from lighting incense sticks, the people were also offering cones made of banana leaf decorated with flowers as well as releasing birds. The photo of the girl came from the damages film roll I mentioned in my travel blogs. I was able to reasonably repair it using Photoshop. I still would have preferred being able to save the film so that I could make hand prints out of it. The only consolation is that I have other pictures of the girl in another film roll that I did not manage to damage. click here to go to my luang prabang travel blog © 2006, daddywasabi, all rights reserved.

sai bat

in luang prabang, every morning without fail, the monks and novices walk the street to collect alms from the faithful. At daybreak , people lay down mats along the route where the monks pass by with their basket of warm sticky rice. With each monk or novice that will pass by, a small handful of rice is placed in the monk's bowl. At times we find children begging food from the monks.
