Neighbours are now making 2600 small bags of rice for the event.

I guess that the toilet block at MacDonald's will be busy.

Heck - where are they all staying? A logistical nightmare.

Thanks for the reminder PS, knew about it and forgot! Unfortunately I will not be on Samui this coming Sunday but parking is going to be a nightmare.

Not looking good for the weather for the boys. Let's hope that it clears up.

Can combine with floating market

Well - that was impressive.

I forgot about the traffic, so I arrived a bit late , but 'what a lot of monks'. They were still bagging up the alms after the monks had gone.

Amazing Thailand

Two things that I learnt this morning.

1 Chewang is quite pleasant at 9 am on a Sunday

2 Regardless of what all of the sign say - Tops does NOT open at 9.30 every day. At 9.30 today - not a soul was seen inside. Locked up and dark.

I'm guessing they'd be staying in the temples..

One of the best organized events I have been to in Thailand. And yes, Chaweng is surprisingly nice early on a Sunday!
