The Parade starts quite early. 6 or 6:30 am. On Rat Phatthana Road, near bus station one, the parade breaks off into a number or troupes. The troupes scatter to different streets to visit a number of businesses. The dragons and lions entering businesses in the hopes of guaranteeing a prosperous future.  There's usually a final performance similar to the aerial dragon fight in the first video. Somewhere between 11 am and noon.
