Despite the Protest---Songkran--"a time for cleaning and renewal"







Despite all the sad that has happened in Bangkok the last few days, it's the New Year here in Thailand.



Gangs of kids and adults roam the streets, water guns and water-filled buckets in hand.



Groups stand on the side of roads with hoses. Pickup trucks drive by full of water and people throwing it.



And don't forget the bowls of chalk ready to be smeared all over the nearest person.



Keith and I have inevitably been getting cooled down!
