not holy cow

Christmas is BIG in the orphanage, but outside in the village of Buddavaram, life goes on...not a holy cow, but the beast of an itinerant musician who wanders from house to house playing a kind of clarinet for a handful of rice of 10 rupees, it is supposed to bring good health/luck to the household.
Every inch of the animal is decorated...while the sound of snake charmer style music floats around the village for hours...
