Songkran 2012 in Chiang Mai

After my week at the elephant camp I headed back to Chiang Mai to celebrate my 3rd Songkran :D  I love the Thai New Year/Water War.  Overnight the city transforms from super peaceful and relaxing into an insane water throwing extravaganza.  From around 10am until 7 or 8pm it's a non-stop no holds barred water war!  There is so much water being thrown around that the streets literally turn into rivers.  It's a great festival that went on for 4 days this year, and there were a number of awesome people walking around in costumes this year.

(Note: I was going to put the pictures in some sort of order but after fighting with the new blogger set up for about an hour I'm too tired/frustrated and honestly don't really care anymore.  Enjoy the pics from this year! )
