India trip 07-08

I came to India on the 19 of December 2007 with my mom, and have been taking pictures since. Each day I have chosen one photo that I like the most. The other pictures from that day I will try and put on when I return home. Part of the trip was to come to the 25th Kagyu Monlam in Bodh Gaya www.kagyumonlam.org , and the other part is to visit a home for children and eldrly in Kalimpong, West Bengal, visit for more www.jamgonkongtrul.org
Also visit a Kagyu members blog @ http://www.urbuddhaful.blogspot.com/

Enjoy
