We got up at 430am or something ridiculous to watch a procession of 11500 monks in celebration of the Kings birthday. Pretty spectacular, they hold their urns out and people drop in food stuffs, the public have sacks full of food all to dontate to these hungry orange men. Kinda like monk trick or treating. It gets put back into sacks at the end and I assume distributed evenly.
Also for the Kings birthday (its a big time) we found out about a fireworks extravaganza in the most beautiful public gardens we have ever seen (maybe). At both these events we were somehow among the only tourists. It was a nice way to spend time in a place that was a little underwhelming overall, maybe cos of all the hype you hear about it. When you ring the bell Megans about to hit somehow the gold bit on top ejaculates a spurt of water!
