Songkran festival

Songkran: a five day water festival of epic proportions in Thailand, the worlds greatest country. The city of Chiang Mai is about 1 million. During Songkran it doubles. Travelers have made a pilgrimage from all corners of our earth to this sacred Buddhist festival to celebrate life by taking the week off for a five-day water battle of epic proportions. Little photographic evidence was captured during the mayhem, below is all I have.






Most of the stuff that happened was WAY TOO EPIC for this blog anyway.
