Woke at 5:30 in the early morning of the 2560th birthday anniversary of Buddha in his birthplace Lumbini, a UNESCO Heritage Site. The rain has not let up & I thought of sleeping a couple of hours more but the thought of cramming with 1.3 million devotees expected to make a pilgrimage that day got me out of bed. I took shelter from the gentle patter of the rain under a tin-roof hut. A place where pilgrims light butter lamps. In the picture, a devout family shot behind a glass window.
