A busy time November - December

[DavidFL]

Doing the rounds the last week Ive picked up on a few festivals that might interest some people

8-9 November Tai Lue Kathin Ceremony in Phayao
17-18 November Tai Lue Kathin Ceremony in Nan
23-24 November Tai Lue Ceremony in Chiang Khong
23-24 November the Sunflower & Hill tribe festival in Hua Mae Kham.
6-10 December 10 Hill Tribes festival in Mae Sai.

The Tai Lue Kathin ceremonies were pretty amazing IMHO & the one I followed from Chiang Khong to Mae Sai last week was sensational for photographs. (Pix still coming = too busy.)

Thanks David!

So much to see and never enough time. I'm envious of your retired folk!

The Sunflower & Hill tribe festival in Hua Mae Kham sounds quite special- I think I'll try and make that one. Will you be there?

See you on Saturday in MHS! :happy5:
