Losar two: butter!

Part of losar is that you eat and drink a ton. Everyone offers you capse and chang and whiskey and sweet rice with dried fruit and indian sweets. To counteract all the eating, Stephen, Liz, and I did Kora around the temple, and then went upstairs to see the big butter sculptures.

They're huge. And made entirely by hand by monks. It's insane, and insanely beautiful.
