The year of the dragon!

Thai love to celebrate so they make a big deal out of Chinese New Year's. The family took me to see the excitement last night. The main street of downtown was closed off with hundred's of booths selling, exhibiting, promoting, etc. Several stages were set up for a variety of types of entertainment; Chinese opera, Thai Dancing, singing and more.
The food court had tables and chairs set on the street with 26 food vendors on one side and 12 on the other. I'm guessing that the whole street was closed for a mile and there were many more food vendors interspersed throughout the entire street.
Not only do Thai love to celebrate they also love to eat and shop.
