I am quite happy that the Songkran H2O throwing entirely lasts 1 twenty-four hr menses hither inwards Phuket. Yesterday was fun, a prissy twenty-four hr menses for all the family.

We showtime drove trend upward to the northward of Phuket, to Mai Khao beach, an surface area which is nonetheless quite "traditional" although at that topographic point is the JW Marriott Resort somewhere along the beach. There is a turtle projection at Mai Khao (see here), in addition to a yearly turtle unloosen ceremony held on Apr 13th. The mayor gave a speech, all the local gentry attended, in addition to and hence the lucky few who had known to majority their turtles inwards advance (doh!) got a turtle to unloosen into the sea.

From Mai Khao (via a luncheon break) nosotros drove to Patong (the primary tourist beach), entirely 10km from home, exactly equally I had guessed the traffic was heavy in addition to it took 45 minutes to make Patong. The globe in addition to his blood brother were heading at that topographic point for some watery fun. What struck me close was the feel of happiness all around. The H2O rituals used to live express to sprinkling Buddha images (like inwards Mai Khao, run across photograph above) or splashing a petty H2O on friends or solid unit of measurement equally a trend of ritually cleansing the trunk in addition to making trend for a novel twelvemonth complimentary from whatever past times worries. It has gone a fleck mad, amongst drinking, H2O fights in addition to trend likewise many route accidents due inwards business office to alcohol, in addition to inwards business office to the unsafe trend people throw H2O at moving vehicles. We did get got a walk to a greater extent than or less Patong in addition to the kids loved it, carrying their H2O pistols in addition to beingness splashed in addition to beingness able to shoot back! I actually must larn a waterproof housing for the camera...
