"Sports Days" at Lertlah

Yup, this is exactly how we felt when we saw what "Sports Days" means in Thailand.

All the schools in Thailand have Sports Week. Despite what the title eludes to, this does not mean that all the students put on their sneakers and get sweaty. No, no, no. Sports days clearly means that the girls put on as much shinny frill and lace as possible and perform dances/cheers.

All the school is divided up into different colored "teams". Stu was on the red team. The part that really confused us was that the "teams" cheered for their color of cheer leaders to win the dance/cheer contests.




These are the representatives of the purple team.
















This is Miss Haylie and a few of her students on the purple team. Faithful fans of their cheerleading representatives.
