Loi Kratong Day 2: Festival of FIREWORKS!


Well, Loi Kratong festival seems to be the festival that never ends! 3 days straight now of partying, fireworks and floating boats down the canals and Ping River here in Chiang Mai.

Enjoy this video, and appreciate the MADNESS that is Chiang Mai city during this special time. Driving my motorbike I got hit in the thigh about 3 times from explosive fireworks, and my friend May almost had her hair lit on fire from a sparkler dripping lantern in the sky!

Music, bombs, and fires everywhere...it's like a festive D-Day invasion!

So this video has been appropriately named 'Loi Kratong Day 2: Festival of FIREWORKS!'

If you missed the last post, click here for an explanation about the festival, the lanterns and why we float the boats down the river...
