coconut? or perhaps some cane ball...

Every day has something new here in Thailand- here are a few favorites from the past week!

Some movements and kicks are similar to a dance or martial arts, and the game is about 1,500 years old and once played for Burma royalty. Here's a look as I work on a continuing photo essay about the sport.
