Songkran at DST

Each year in the BOC, we have a tradtion for Songkran, the Thai New Year/Water Festival. The associates pour water over the hands of the managers and their project leaders, while giving them a blessing, such as "I wish you good health," of just "Sawatdi bi mai," (Happy New Year.) They also daub our faces with a mixture of water and powder. It is really a nice gesture and shows great respect.

My protegee, Natt enoys his great chance to get me good.

Left to right: Lisa De Petro, Jon De Petro, yours truly, Jim Barker, and Ben Burdt.

Lined up for their turn.

Aum is getting too much happiness from this!

Tuk wishes my boss, Vera a Happy Songkran.
