3 Months Rain Retreat(Vassa)

If you are wondering what I have been up to the past few weeks and for weeks to come here is a good update for those who doesn't know and for those who wants to know more about the 3 months retreat before Kathina... and oh yes... I am staying in a temple now... At the very least for the time being...

Actually I didn't edit this picture other than putting the watermark... Nice view eh?

One of my 2 favourite pet in the temple... Lisa... while waiting for chanting session to start... oops I mean while I wait for the chanting session to start and Lisa waiting for food... hahahaha.

Nightfall and everyone is gathered in front of the shrine lead by the monks for prayers.
