Laos New Year 2012: Day 1

The Laos New Year, or Pi Mai is a celebration that takes place over three days in April. People swarm the streets, drinking, dancing, and soaking each other to the bone. In Vientiane, Laos' capital, we underestimated the quality of soaking that we'd get. Watch the video and see how hard the Laotians party.
