That was a fun “low key” Lao New Year\/Boun Pimay at Wat Riverdale on Sunday.\u00a0 Thanks to Aaliyah and Brianna for being the first models of the day!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09 Great performances by the LDA Lao Dance Association, it was my first time seeing this new group of little future superstar dancers.\u00a0 Thanks for continuing to preserve the heritage and culture.\u00a0 Of course thanks to all the temple volunteers, and the great turnout for the thahk baht and community meal.\u00a0 I had the sticky rice, larp, and kaeng nor mai (bamboo stew) and man was it good.\u00a0 Oh I also shot a few rolls of film today (Fuji 200), hopefully they turned out okay.\u00a0 We shall see in a few weeks.\u00a0 (Update, Post here!<\/a>) It was great seeing everyone, I don’t think I’d visited this temple in many years.<\/p>\n

Here are a few photos, more to come in a future post, and possibly recap video, but why put in all that work for something folks are not going to watch fully anyway. \ud83d\ude2d \ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2642\ufe0f\ud83e\udd23<\/p>\n
