Just as we arrive, it is the Buddhist festival of Vesak. Apparently, the country will adhering to the following:
Not to kill
Not to steal
Not to engage in improper activity (which is?!?!)
Not to indulge in wrong speech (That will be hard)
Not to take intoxicating drinks and drugs (this is supposed to be a holiday.....no vino :()
To abstain from taking food at unreasonable times (when is a reasonable time?!?!?!)
To refrain from sensual pleasures such as dancing, singing and self-adornment (LOL I'll be able to keep this if I don't drink!)
To refrain from using high and luxurious seats in order to practice humility. (WTF?!?!?)
So, we arrive and we can't drink. Might have to hit Duty Free :) Guess it will be good practice for the tubes when we get back thanks to Boris!!!
