HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! A BUDDIST TEMPLE AND A PIG FOR THE YEAR OF THE PIG!

What I understand is that Buddha asked for the animals to meet him on the New Year. Twelve came and the pig was one of them. So, I put a Buddist Temple and a little pig together to celebrate this Chinese New Year!

I like the vivid colors of the temple and the pig is cute. I was born under the sign of the pig (e.g., boar), so I've always been partial to them. :>}
