The thread for your photos of people at Thai temples making merit, ie praying to Buddha to win the lottery or whatever it is they want out of life.

First up is a young lady at Wat Pho in Bangkok, no idea what she wanted but she spent enough time explaining it to him, at least I think that's what she was doing.

We had the same scheme in Europe when I was lad . You'd make awishlist then go to deprtment store and sit on the knee of an old man in red clothes. I believe this is considered child molestation today. Surprisingly it worked you sometimes got a little brother,train set etc but never an elephant
