On Wednesday, October 17, the 14th Dalai Lama was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in honor of his efforts for peace, nonviolence, and universal acceptance. The next few photos will be of that event. Go here to start at the beginning.
Yet another photo of two adorable Tibetan little girls. They were in a large group of kids that had been jumping up and down and dancing to the music of the Tibetan performers.

They are Tibetan but did they ever see Tibet, and would they see it in the future? I really hope so! Thanks for this joyful picture!
