Following the monks
Driving home on Saturday I followed this Song Tiew (taxi truck) through traffic for quite a while.
I took this photo while stuck in traffic, to the amusement of the group of young, orange robed monks in the back. (the photo was taken through a dirty windscreen so is a bit blurry- but I liked the combination of the orange and the red).
I was amused by them as they were occupying themselves like any teenager on a road trip. They had earphones in, sunglasses on their forehead, were looking at screens and eating ice cream.
Life for a monk seems pretty good these days - how about a bit of prayer & fasting!
