Songkran, How Do You Feel About It?

[forumuser10]

Isn't it ironic that as the Thais are getting rid of their year long built up resentment at farang , the farang are lapping it all up with a smile on their face. I'm talking about places like Khao San Road and Pattaya where they hate farang but grudging smile (and more) just to get their cash. What a clever idea turning Sonogram into an aggressive festival.

I blame the foreigners for this, not the Thais.

The ones who threw the water deserve a beating??

$50+ to have the lenses polished 15 years ago is probably closer to $100 now, and it's damned annoying when I asked the fool not to do it, time and again.

Absolutely hate it.

However, If people enjoy it, please let them have fun.

I presume you don't have to drive during the holiday?

correct.

It is a world apart from the quite humbling experience (in my view) of watching family members respect their parents/elders by washing feet and gently applying a little powder to the face.

Those were the days.
