I have passed in Surin city last night, The city was very busy with many people and elephants and elephants shxx on the road..   
I went to the Sikorapum show (In Sikorapum, Surin) and it was very nice show, very impressive all the work around and the dancers,performance was superb and all the evening was really nice, it's a show about the historical story of Sikorapum Castle old days.

It was very cold last night and pitty on the dancers had to keep the show going half naked on the stage.. 

One thing all didn't liked was the food, as the food served was Chinese style food (means,use chinese herbs/spices ONLY chinese would like to eat).
Many people (THAI) didn't liked the food and I think it's not fair as most people there were Thai and it's not a food they can enjoy that much , considering the price (2900 Baht /Table up to 8 people).

Apart from this point the show was very enjoyable and every table got 2 bottles of LEO and 1 bottle of "BEN MORE" whisky, we had a great time with friends and spent a nice evening in there.

All in all, We went back home happy but HUNGRY
