Song kran 2008

Another Song Kran celebration is upon us. Even as we speak, people all over Thailand are soaking each other down with muddy water (I think it's clay, actually). We had a small ceremony at the house for the family this afternoon. Palmy went nuts with the muddy water, and blessed everything she could sling the spiritual soup on, including Bongo, and my motorcycle (grrrr!). Our niece Bing was armed with a salvationary super soaker and is a pretty fair shot with it.

A very wet and muddy Puk and Palm.
