How do you upload videos..use a link only?
Today I joined the throngs in Songkhla, Thailand, celebrating the Thai new year Songkran water festival, where the entire country has street water fights!
Best. Holiday celebration. Ever.
People line the streets beside water barrels full of ice water and try to dunk or spray the passers-by, who, in turn fight back from the backs of pickup trucks loaded with water barrels where kids can refill their super-soaker water guns.
It was hilarious fun, and I was thoroughly drenched, mostly by request of the kids near me to cool me off because this is the hottest day of the year here.
I took a pile of videos, but dunno the best way to post them here, so here are some regular photos from last year, when I rode my motorbike with the crowd at Samila Beach.
