The Lantern Festival

We went to the Lantern Festival on Sunday. It is a celebration of Buddha's birthday, which is actually on the 24th of May. There are thousands of Lanterns hanging all around the city. There is an opening ceremony (the first picture) and then a very long parade ending at the Jogyesa Buddhist Temple.

Sports Day

On Friday, instead of teaching little kids, we played sports all day. Several of the EG School branches came together to compete in basketball, soccer, kickball and a relay race. Out of four, my team came in second place. There was lots of food, beer and fun!
