Loy Krathong Parade

2012-12-15T09:00:00.000+08:00

Most of the explanation for the various floats was in Thai. I believe that each group of people represents a tribe and their costumes. This group of beautiful Thai ladies carried interesting lamps.

Floating lamps

2012-12-10T09:03:00.000+08:00

I am totally in love with the Thai festival called Yee Peng Loy Krathong. The concept behind the festival is letting go.

It's celebrated on the last full moon of the year when floating lanterns are released into the sky, along with all the bad luck, bad feelings etc, allowing the coming year to start afresh. I would definitely go back for this again.

Climbing Wat Arun

Monk at Wat Arun

2012-12-02T09:00:00.000+08:00

Inspite of frequenting Bangkok on work, I've not taken much time to there as a tourist. We got lucky this year when we were able to stay over for a few days and explore the city.

Wat Arun is one of the temples by the river. It is very interesting with the grey facade and what looked like crockery stuck to the outside.
