Lao Festival

lao festival="lao festival"
Have you been to a rocket festival in N.E. Thailand?

Its May and the Annual Ban Bung Fai ( Spell it however you like, but thats how it sounds to me) Is on all over Issan and Lao.
I think very few tourists would get to see this Jaw dropping spectacle.
I had an expat friend who lives in Chonburri come to stay last week, here in Nong Bua Lam Phu. I had told him about the rockets here, but he did not seem very impressed but when he saw the first of three 120 kilo rockets fired all he could say was "Fark FARK " that sums it up.


yes i have, AGES ago. but havent lately and hardly remember it.
