BlakeMarc > I got in there too, i did the dance...kinda... You can see the men playing the instruments behind us. I guess everyone was pretty shocked to see a Farang (Fah-lang) doing the dance. They thought it was great, never seen it before.

BlakeMarc > The following day, we went to another Lahu village in the area to dance there with them.
