This is Phillipa, the morning HH Dalai Lama is coming. We were up and rushing a round by 5:30 - this was just after dawn, about an hour before he is due.
You can see how intense it is :-)
Down at the stupa site, getting ready. The pix is so washed out 'cos it was still dark and I don't have a flash on my 1972 nikkomat
Safely arrived in front of the stupa, and down to business..
And that's what he is blessing.
