It so happened that our vacation had come for April a month. Naturally we decided to go to the sea. And the warm sea all year round can be found in Thailand. When the trips were bought, the manager reported to us that we fell to the Thai New Year. They celebrate it from April 12 to 19. A distinctive feature of the celebration is to pour cold water, sometimes with ice - from buckets, water pistols, buckets and other tanks. After that, the squeezing of fragrant powder. And the more Thais they will share white, the more they will arrive in the new year. Our mood is somewhat supported, since we drove with children of the two and thirteen years.
We arrived on April 10th. The weather was excellent, 35 heat. The sea was clean. From 10 am, the tump began, creating beats with water. The child was in joy to run in the sand and water. Our hotel was on the Hill Pratumnak, the favorite place of the Russians. On April 12, we bought raincoats and covers for money and phone numbers and walked in tension and waiting for the jet of water from above. But nothing happened. But on the last day of the new year, the 19th day, it began ... In the morning, all the shops and shops were closed. The merchants pulled a tanks on the street with water and lily water on all passing, while the greetings shouted loudly. The music rumbled from every corner. No matter how sad, but Russians as always distinguished themselves. Our compatriots unfortunately shot from water pistols under skirts girls and women. I also got. And they aished us all the way, but Thai girls did it all gently and with our permission. Children liked it. Under the evening, universal lawlessness intensified. We watched the hotel's windows. The water flowed from the balconies, there was a feeling that he was shown. Husband and eldest son decided to go to the city, see how the new year is celebrated there. Two hours later they returned all wet and dirty. According to the city, the city was poured with ice water, it was unpleasant. On April 20, everything ended, calm life continued. We concluded that rest during this period is better done without children, especially small. And so, it was fun, after all, to fool and disadvantaged at all.
