Our kick off for the new school year was a hike to the Great Stupa at the Shambhala Mountain Center. It was a beautiful day, and the girls were excited to be together again! We even had some little brothers join us too!
Most of us had not been here before, so it was a new experience for all of us!
The girls made offerings and then continued up the path!
They were very excited to reach the Stupa and they couldnt wait to see what was inside. We circumambulated the Stupa, and then went inside.
I was so proud of our girls...they removed their shoes and quietly walked inside to explore the Stupa. Some of the kids even decided to join a man that was meditating on the pillows. They were respectful, quiet and so sweet to watch! They had such a nice time they didnt want to leave.
They wrote notes to Buddha and then headed home.
It was a great day to be outside exploring nature and another culture and the girls had a blast!
