Bars having live DJs playing all kinds of music, people simply dancing, throwing water on the streets, and touching each other's face with white powder.

     Patpong was great for the night market... and at first the "you wanna see smoking pussy" was amusing, but it did get the better of me. The markets are worth it though... great to read through your pages!!
