Lisaw New Year's Gathering

[Ajarn]

Though the NY's celebration was yesterday, there will be a gathering of the lisaw tribes in the North on Feb. 12th. at Sam Li village, 20 k's East of Phrao...

Starts in the afternoon, and goes on until quite late....

Here is a frame from some video I took there last year..

I was the only farang there...

Cool.. Is it on the main road, after taking a right turn when getting to Phrao?

Daytime right?

Might just go over there... Should be fun.

Yes, Chanchao, exactly... You'll see a sign for Sam Li, with a steep paved road going up off the right side....

Not sure of the hours, but, last year there were smaller groups of people dancing during the day, but later in the afternoon and evening, there were hundreds of people dancing. Very friendly folk, and I got no 'outsider' vibe at all from anyone, just lots of smiles and invitations to drink, eat and dance.

Hope to see you there.

Here's a map I'd posted earlier for something else..
