I'm in phuket now, and apparently almost the whole island is celebrating the 九-皇-大-帝 festival. Its a taoist ceremony i guess. heard tht its quite well known and famous in phuket for this festival, where it stretches for dunno how many days, and the mediums will perform 'gory' rituals, like sticking big and thick pins into cheeks, slicing tongue and whats not. There are yellow flags sticked all around the island, and ppl wearing white (almost all of them). but the highlight is really the mediums. i think my dad will like to watch the ritual. i tot of taking some eye-popping photos, but too bad, the timing is slightly off. the rituals will only start on tue? and i will be gone to krabi, tml afternoon i guess. maybe next time can suggest bring my dad come haha.
I couldn't resist.. went to the premium outlet in phuket again, bgt clothes again, haha. Really if you ever come thailand, go research on where is the nearest premium outlet and make your way there if possible. most of the items is like 50% discount. brands like adidas, nike, portland, ripcurl, pierre cardin, and so much more... hmm how many clothes have i buy, 1..2...3...4..5...6...7...8...9...10..11....hmmm
