Are you my Dad?

We went to a wedding in Kathmandu, Nepal, back in January and came home just as coronavirus was starting to impact. The ladies at the wedding wore the most beautiful saris. Some of the men were in Western suits but many wore the traditional daura suruwal. These were mostly a very similar colour to each other.
At one point, a family photo was being taken and a group of people had assembled with their backs to me. To this little boy looking for his Dad, the sea of legs must have all looked the same. I was trying to get a photo of the little boy’s face but somehow I snapped this instead.
I hope you get a laugh out of this. I wasn’t going to put it up but we need some levity in these times, don’t you think?

@1creekgirl Certainly. Rugby is a game with a passing resemblance to what you refer to as football. Well the ball's a similar shape but that's probably about it.
A scrum is a method of restarting play after certain offenses have been commited and involves 8 players on each team playing what looks like an elaborate game of twister.

@Jessicalynnt I've had a child take my hand in a crowd before today and get a huge shock when he looked up.

That is so funny. Yes, we all need as much humor as we can get now.

@JudyEv Glad you got the photo of him. Did he get hurt or is that because of the wedding or ?

@1creekgirl He just had a funny little face. He seemed perfectly happy but didn't smile much at all.

Apart from putting photos up here, I'm the only one that looks at mine too. However i do like going through them from time to time.

One website says they have had a lot of deaths; another says they've had no deaths. I don't know what to believe. We're in touch with some people there and haven't been hearing about lots of deaths so we're hoping it's not too bad there.

The men all look the same from the ground to the knees.

Poor little boy, waheehee. It's like looking for someone in the platoon of soldiers.

@JudyEv seriously, animals, especially the young, have a keen sense of smell that they can identify their mother by the odor.

Hopefully that leg the kid was latched onto was his dad's leg!

@JudyEv Judging by where that kids hands are, I really hope it wasn't the wrong guy!

I'll tell you, being that short and a child that is the safest way to anchor onto daddy
