The monks from the different Wat's around the city walk through through the streets in a procession and people give each monk some of their rice that they get from the market in the pre dawn hours.
After all of the Wat's gather together and have collected their daily rice, they all join together near the Mekong river for a large communal breakfast. This ceremony was quite moving and for me it had a quiet air of authenticity.
wishing everyone a good November
