The Buddha comes out




In the middle of the town was a festival where the Buddha comes out.  These statues are brought from all over the area to be carried around in this red bamboo house.  All the locals stand in line for their turn to carry the Buddha.  They believe it will give them a special place in the afterlife.  Grace enjoyed all the piggy bag rides!
