As incessant rain gave way to clear blue skies this week the spirit of the Bhutanese people could not have been higher, or their hearts more elated. It was a special event in Bhutanese history and a precious moment for men, women, and children throughout the kingdom as they came together to celebrate the 25th anniversary of His Majesty the King's coronation.
