also, in addition to the blossom offerings/adornments, little squares of banana leaf with a bit of cooked rice are left seemingly everywhere (the corners of buildings, stairways, etc) and for the little compound shrines, little box-like trays, also woven of banana leaf, i think, are put out. these contain rice, blossoms, slices of banana, mysteriously other plant/grassy bits, and sometimes a bit of colored cloth.
thinking of Thich Naht Hanh again this morning, i will take my mountain strength and my cloud flexibility out into the streets and go to the monkey sanctuary :) (breakfast was a pineapple crepe with coconut, yoghurt and honey, fruit, and a watermelon juice :))) )
