The King's Birthday

ok. the quick run down. kings 82 b-day. he's the longenst ruling monarch in the world. 99% of thai people would die for him in a second and revere him basically like a god. every shop and house has a picture of him. he's a super amazing person.

for his birthday there was mass celebration. millions of people in thwe streets, free food, free haircuts on the street (not sure what for), huge stages everywhere with bands and singing and plays, mui thai, other pro sporting events, parades... because pink is the color for the kings health and he's been sick for a while everyone wore these pink shirts instead of the usual kings color- yellow

got together with a bunch of people i met in my massage classes and went out.
