Loi Kratong

Uploaded by ollylama on Feb 26, 2009
The kind folks over at Destination Thailand and Travel Asia and Beyond invited me to host a couple of their television shows recently. It was quite an experience. If you've never seen yourself of television before, it can really come as quite a shock - especially when you totally ad-libbed all of it and you should have had a proper haircut. Still, I'd do it again in a second. I have no pride.
Loi Kratong is a holiday that takes place in November all over Thailand. In most parts, "kratongs" (floating thingies with candles and money in them) are sent down the river as a way to remove bad luck and thank the river for its bounty. In Chiang Mai they also send khom loy into the air as well -- these are paper balloons which are powered by a big burning wax candle inside. It's amazing to see the sky filled with them.
