Baht Simpson Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Heh heh. I'll be sure to sing that when I come to Thailand for LK this year. How does that translate yingisagirl2004? A few years ago I spent LK in Chiang Mai and had a wonderful time. It's rather frightening for the unitiated though. I remember being trapped on a bridge spanning the Ping River whilst Thai youths were ernestly firing rockets at us from the riverbank. There's a sort of war that goes on between opposing factions on each side of the river, attempting to reach the other side with their rockets. Best of all were the thousands of light lanterns (Khom Loy) which dominated the night skyline and the smell of incense that permeated the night air. Great times. LK in Phuket was rather disappointing. Where else is good to go for LK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
