Loy Kra Thong

November 12 is Loy Krathong day in Thailand this year. Loy Kra Thong is a festival in Thailand where once a year that you apologize and pay respect to the mother river for having us use water to wash, clean, and drink all year round. We make flower bouquet from banana stem and decorate it with flowers and banana leaves.

My son and I went to a canel behind our house to float the Kra Thong. My son was pround as his Kra Thong was the most beautiful Kra Thong on the whole canal.

.......

Of course, his Kra Thong was the only one in the canal.
