My fault that the list hasn't been finished before the anniversary. Last week was just hectic, meetings after meetings. so today I will list all the rest things I Love about you:-p in my next post.
Firstly, I want to say " Amazing Anniversary!" It was so unique and really once a life chance to spend in a Monastery!
We left early Saturday morning and met up with our tour mates; 4 couples, two families also brought their young kids and two singles as well. It took us a very breezy two and a half hours to get to such a peaceful and tranquil monastery.
Right away we were invited to have our very first meal there. Since all monks already got lunch at 10:30, we were all by ourselves. The food was just beyong words , even though all veggies, they managed to make them so tasty.
Well since too many things happened during the weekend, I am just highlighting some here. We played basketball with the monks, 6 vs 6 in half a court in front of a pagoda! Imagine how crowded that was. Surreal!
We went to sleep by 8pm and all got up at 4am Sunday. Some went to hit the bell for the Monastery first and then gathered for chanting and walking and praying for an hour. Still dark outside.......breakfast with all monks at 5:30, yummy...........
