Two in Thailand

After raising three children and watching them graduate from college, Bob and Carol decided to leave the educational field and pursue a dream that had been put on hold for 35 years (since graduationg from the University of Northern Iowa). "Two in Thailand" is the journal dedicated to that dream - to serve in the Peace Corps. This is a personal blog. The opinions expressed within do not necessarily represent the views of the Peace Corps or the United States Government.

Songkran




Welcome to the year 2551. Thailand celebrates it with water which cleanses everything (including people). It's a way of cleansing the body and soul to prepare it for another year.

No one is exempt! It's called good, clean fun .... but the water thrown may come from a polluted canal, so beware! (Look in the background of the 2nd and 3rd pictures. This was right across from the entrance to our hotel.)
