"Golden Horse Monastery" in Thailand; not actually a formal Buddhist training monastery, more of a home for orphans where they just happen to train the little guys in the Buddhist way of life. It's really an amazing story (the guy who founded it used to be hard-core military and was a kick-boxing champ...once he was a civilian again, his heart went out to the orphans because no one seemed to give a rat's ass about them, so he stepped up). The boys take care of the ponies--which has tremendous therapeutic value.

the tenderness of that little guy in the middle of the pic is just beautiful; makes me all mushy inside...
