Uus hooaeg

New Season


Samal õhtul, kui Läänemaailm tähistas Halloweeni, peeti Luang Prabangis pidustusi, mis tähistasid 2012.a. vihmahooaja lõppu. Ohtralt oli inimesi tänavatel, templihoovides ja Mekongi kallastel. Süüdati ujukküünlaid, paugutati püssirohuvigureid, kohtuti tuttavate-sugulastega, söödi perekeskis.

As the Western world was celebrating Halloween the people of Luang Prabang were marking the end of monsoon for the year 2012. The beginning of the dry season was celebrated by floating candles on the Mekong, visiting local temple grounds, lighting firecrackers, meeting friends and eating together with ones family.
