Fire Balloons at a temple party in Pai

http://playpoi.com The Thai people have many beautiful customs. In the north there are festivals and customs related to fire and light. This is a video of my friends sending a "fire balloon" into the sky at a temple party near Pai. At this time of year you see these floating in the sky every night.

I make my own. I take a big plastic bag (transparent), make a circle out of a steel thread, a cross inside it with cotton drained in lampoil in middle, tape it at the bottom of the bag, and then its just to fill it with hot air and wait. Like in this video. Very easy to do and looks good.
