Lao people are socialists by nature and they socialise – frequently! Usually in their homes or those of neighbours. Anyone is welcome to drop in at any time unannounced, and will automatically be expected to share any food that is being eaten – and this can be at any hour of the day or night. These little get-togethers may develop into a game of 'boule' or a card game which later will evolve into a party when the first crate of beer (available everywhere) appears, and it will! It quickly develops into a raucous affair with plenty of food and lots of beer lao or lao kao being consumed. There may be loud music, spontaneous shrieking and singing, karaoke, hand clapping, and 'Lao dancing'. Unplanned parties like this can occur on any day of the week and can go long into the night. There are also many family events which require a 'baci' (Buddhist blessing ceremony) followed by a party. These are pre-planned and often the whole extended family and friends are expected to attend.
