My China Album contributors share their stories

Brantly Womack

In July 2009 I led a group of students from University of Virginia on a visit to China. One night we camped out in a field next to Samye Monastery in Tibet, one of Tibet's most famous Buddhist monasteries.  The next morning some of the neighborhood kids came out and we played soccer with them.  After a while a rainbow appeared, and I took this picture.  Everyone was so happy that they jumped for joy.
