Monk Sighting

We spotted some orange-robed monks this morning, walking down Soi 3 (our street) in our neighborhood. It's 6am and I'm frying up my eggs for breakfast when my roomie Meredith calls out and announces that the monks have arrived. Sure enough, they were walking door to door, collecting the morning offerings.

In Thailand, monks will go out and the followers are to present food and water offerings, if they have it available. The neighbors directly across from our home put something in the monks bowl; I'm sure it was delicious! My camera hand wasn't quick enough to the draw, but next time I'll be sure to snap some photogs.
