Chiang Mai Zoo Ovaltine Festival



Last month in Chiang Mai I visited the zoo, where I saw this great Ovaltine extravaganza. "Ovaltine" is impossible to say in Thai, it comes out "oh-wan-deen."

Kind of crass, and typically way too loud, there's still something endearing about this presentation. Maybe it's that Mistress of Ceremonies, she seems enthusiastic.

As Ralphie says in A Christmas Story: "A crummy commercial!!"

Yeah, but typical. Every mall and park has these tent things set up, with a pretty girl yelling into a microphone at pain-level volume.
