Festival fun
Whether steeped in ancient tradition and
religious custom, or just a good excuse
to have fun, festivals are special days.
They give communities the chance to
congregate and celebrate together.
Songkran squirters
Thailand’s traditional New Year
gets underway with the Songkran
water festival. Elephants spray water,
children squirt pistols, and water-
filled buckets drench passersby.
This supersized water fight marks
the wet season starting in April.
