Corin Travels
The highlight of Luang Prabang and most humbling experience on trip so far, giving alms to the monks. Everyday at sunrise the monks collect their food for the day only able to eat what is donated. This is common culture for all Buddhist monks but has become quite a tourist spectacle in Luang Prabang. I found it emotionally moving especially to see the monks sharing their donated food with kids from the local orphanage. Luang Prabang also brought such delights as beautiful waterfalls, bike roads around the river, bear sanctuary, and a spectacular evening meal cooking our own food on table top bbq's.
