In afternoon we have Tradition of carrying sand into the temple or monastery .... Its Annual practice to bring sand back to the temple in order to replace all of the sand that has been carried out from temple grounds sticking to visitors feet, as it is not considered good to take anything away from a Thai temple, even unwillingly. Also today is Family day ..Elders and parents will be visited and respected by their children and grandchildren.
