We were so happy to be in Chiang Mia during the Yee Ping Festival. Last year we missed seeing the lanterns because we were in the states. This year my dear friend Jen and her family went and we joined in the fun. It was so beautiful and unique to Thailand. We had a blast with them and Sawyer LOVED seeing the all the lanterns in the sky.
Everyone stands in the field and lets go at the same time so there is literally a blanket of thousand of lights going up into the sky at the same time. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience. I have many more thoughts about the events that I want to post but for now I'm trying to get up to date so I'll leave it with the basics. To come the history of the festival and what it's about.....
When the fireworks went off right next to us with no warning Sawyer lost it. It was so late and it had been a long night
