The total of onlookers seemed to convey grown in addition to in that place was a lovely scent of the burning woods in addition to of the incense... The drumming was regular in addition to music consistent - yep it was the Phuket Vegetarian Festival.
There were a set out or people who escorted the possessed through the streets in addition to they all carried dissimilar things.
