The Sunset Show
February 28, 2008Another routine we were happy to partake in while at the Marriott was going to watch the big gala sunset show. Here, in a big reflection pool up near the main concourse, a group of drummers, dancers and fire-twirlers (I think that is what you call them) would put on a traditional show every night at sunset to signify the end of another day. All of them were dressed up in traditional clothing and all wore very strange masks. The show was quite spectacular and we always got up to the main level early in order to grab the best seats by the pool and to ensure that our mojito’s were just the right temperature before the festivities began - there is nothing like sunset in Phuket!
