Songkran

Songkran is the Thai new year celebration.
And it's a city wide water fight.
In the city here the celebrating/water throwing lasted from Friday to Wednesday.
People lined up on the side of the road to throw water on passing cars and motorcycles. People in trucks drove by throwing water back at them. From old to young, everyone was in on it, with their squirt guns, hoses and buckets.

It's the hottest time of the year, so it must be nice to have a good reason not to go to work and to run around throwing water at each other.
