Quoting the wikipedia:'The Songkran festival (Thai: สงกรานต์, from Sanskrit saṃkrānti,[1] "astrological passage") is celebrated in Thailand as the traditional New Year's Day from 13 to 15 April. It coincides with the New Year of many calendars of South and Southeast Asia.'
So last week, joining millions of people exoding Bangkok to meet their respective families all around Thailand, we went ourself to the center east of Thailand, Kunhan. Where Tai family lives. For being more precise geographically...
somewhere in the middle of nowhere. :)
It was just a great week, seeing again known people, meeting new ones, having good rest (ríete de Nevà), wonderful meals and fresh drinks (non-alcoholic and alcoholic ones). And even freelancing from laptop+mobile. Experience that, in places like this, where soil roads replace bitumen ones sometimes, always make me think that my chosen path wasn't so wrong ... finally :)
There we celebrate Songkran Festival, the water festival. Where people throw you water and powders while passing by the street near them. Very funny.
But as risking the camera was out of the question (sometimes is not just some innocent drops :) ) couldn't have photos of the event. So there's some doodles from the week.
Based on a true event:

Beware of cute little children!
The 'funny' thing is that water came from a barrel with ice cubes on it. Some quite refreshing!
Yes, I admit having spit a good spanish curse and some F... words :) It's just a reflex, désolé.
So

Same day with friends, when the drinking make the language barrier gladly blur :)

And a failed revenge

running+sandals+slippery ground aren't a good combination. A third of the water can almost get the target, the other 2/3 were just ... collateral damages. He he
Nothing broke luckily.
And that's all. Promise bringing a waterproof camera for the next time :)
