LAOS 2008 Album 3 Ball throwing

Ball throwing is an annual ritual after the Hmong New Year, and can be called the Hmong game of love, as young people throw balls to each other in order to find a marriage partner.
These photos were taken at and near Vieng Xai.

See link to my article in Brunei Times, and Star.
And another album on ball throwing at Phonsavan.
