Day 3 – Songkran Festival

This morning we Facetime’d with my mom and she got to say Hi to Fai’s mom.  I gave her a tour of our house and showed her my breakfast.  Since Bandid isn’t here Fai’s mom made me eggs, sausage, and bacon.  Very good!

Today was the final day of Songkran Festival and boy was it wild.  We spent the early part of the day at the mall.  I went into a number of tech stores.  In fact they have one whole half of the mall dedicated to electronics.  They have a Sony store, a Samsung store, and then a bunch of “generic” electronic retailers.  They are all set up one right next to each other. Nokia had a small dedicated booth in the middle of the mall next to a Samsung booth.  Samsung had both a booth and store.   When I would leave one, I would feel like I was done, but each store had something interesting in it to see.  I was mainly looking at cel phones and camera lenses for my camera.  Aside from the Sony store, most of the other stores didn’t carry Sony lenses.  They mainly carried Nikon and others.

After the mall we chilled out in the AC at home.  I was pretty wiped out still from yesterday.

I’m actually pretty exhausted now, but just know we have a lot of pictures and videos to share of the Songkran Festival.  Today we played in the water with Fai’s friends at the Proud Coffee Shop.  This guy has a great location because on the street where his coffee shop is located they had a band playing across the street and the coffee shop had there own booming sound system rocking.  Pretty crazy because the music from the band was loud and then we had our music playing so loud that we couldn’t even hear the band playing.  There were thousands of people that came through the street.  It was pretty chaotic.  Fai’s friends are all great. All of them super friendly and they do know how to party.

I have to get some rest, I’ll try to post some of the videos to my youtube channel. My channel is Robbiegod1.  I got a couple videos from this trip up there already. Take a look!

Good night!
