Today I went into the city and participated in what some people call "the biggest waterfight in the world", the Thai Songkran Festival. Before I actually arrived in the city centre there wasn't any dry spot left on my body, since people were throwing water from the sides of the street everywhere. Usually the water is normal tap temperature, which is kind of refreshing at temperatures of 40 degrees outside. But sometimes they throw ice water, which is of course even more refreshing, but cools the body down too much if it appears to often and makes you freeze even at these crazy outside temperatures. Armed with buckets a watergun and a watergrenade we went on a truck of Tew's and made our way into the city center, where the slogan was: "Make wet or you get wet".
