Description
"All things must pass away. Strive for your own salvation with diligence," said the Buddha, his last words.Two Buddhist monks at a remote hilltop village in Laos celebrate the New Year by sending lanterns fueled by fire into the sky.Out with the old and in with the new! A small group of us were able to share this experience with the monks and the people of the village. After the release of the lanterns we all had a meal together and much merrymaking ensued!
