After a few hours of sleep after my return from the night time festivity at That Luang Festival, I was up and got ready for the morning alms offering on the final day of the festival. By 5:30 AM I was out the door and was able to get a good spot and didn’t have to sit outside like the previous time in 2008.
It was a beautiful sight to witness with Buddhist faithfuls from all over Laos, well more like all over the world really. Where I was sitting there were a number of people representing European countries and elsewhere.
