A Very Long Tibetan Horn




This past Saturday, I attended the annual Child Haven International dinner in Alexandria Ontario. This is always a wonderful event, with great food and a silent auction and a bazaar table full of lovely things to buy, like saris and shawls and earrings. All the money from this event goes to a truly worthwhile cause - the support of very poor children and women in India, Nepal, Bangladesh and Tibet. At the end of the evening, I looked over and saw this young boy and his father exploring one of the items from the silent auction - a Tibetan long horn. The boy was using it like an ear horn (or ear trumpet) and his dad was making noises in the large opening at the bottom. I thought this was such a funny scene and quickly pulled out my camera to get this very fast picture.
