Today we went to a Buddhist Temple. There was a Pagoda that looked like Nine stories on the outside but actually had seventeen inside. Believe it or not Scott actually climbed it. There was a Buddhist ceremonial service while we were there. There were eight matching tubs of fish. each tub contained fish at different levels of maturity. The fish played into the ceremony some how. The head priest went around and sprinkled something in each tub during the service.
Before we left all of the babies were able to receive a blessing from one of the monks. It was really interesting because the ancient temple was in the middle of the city with beggars sitting outside of it.
