Another Day of Programs
July 20th was great!. We had to wake up early to do yoga which got us started for the long day ahead. Yoga was really interesting we had to do many difficult yoga moves and I'm not flexible. Over all it was another great experience.
After yoga we had breakfast in the peace cafe our breakfast spot. We had to go to our classes by ten and my class was tanka painting. We had to finish our drawing of the Buddha and by the end of the class it came out really professional I was proud of my classmates and myself. We then ate lunch and I ordered chicken biriani and it was extremely spicy, but I had the best fresh fruit juice while my stay in Dharamsala.
We actually saw the Dalai Lama today as well before tanka class. It was amazing! I couldn't believe my eyes he said hello to the crowd surrounding his palace.
After lunch we did LIT which is a program the teaches Tibetan people how to speak english as well as write english. It was really cool, new people had to sing because that was a tradition in the class and so did our group since the leader requested us to sing since it was our last day. After LIT we had a speaker from the Students for Free Tibet program and it was great they had alot to say and all were peaceful resolutions. Overall it was another wonderful day in Dharamsala.
