New Year's Eve in Thailand is magical. All over town, people purchase paper balloons which are lit on fire with oil and set off into the night sky. This is to sympbolize the old year going out and all evil spirits floating away in the new year. The sky is lit up with thousands of floating lights, like nothing you've ever seen before. Andy and Will bought a balloon and launched it, then we went to a rooftop party where fireworks ending the evening at midnight. It's impossible to catch on film or photos, but we tried . . . Sawadee Dy Pe Mai to everyone!~!
