Loi Krathong

The festival of Loi Krathong is in full effect tonight. The sky is full of sky lanterns and every now and then a barrage of fireworks or fire crackers go off. The area by the river was really busy with people buying Krathong to float on the water. I also got to see another parade (see the picture).

There was also a much higher concentration of traveller/backpacker/gap year types than I've seen since I've been here. All looking very brown and like they had 'gone native'!
