Skywatch Friday @ Chao Praya River

This is the view from one pier, it looks through the Rama 9 Bridge and Kasikorn Bank head quater. If you go ahead the river, soon you will reach the ocean. You might not find many tourist boat as it becomes industrial area by heading to the sea port.

Skywatch Friday @ Pak Klong Talad

It was the area called Pak Klong Talad, or in Thai meaning is the market near the river. This area is famous for selling fresh flowers, huge market for that. This beautiful pagoda is just right there. I'm sorry that i couldn't do better with the light stand. I took it since early morning today, but have time to post it by now.

C'mon Let's Loy Krathong

If you google it with word "Loy Krathong" in Thailand, you will know what is this mean. In brief is we make floating floral vessel and put onto water as forgiveness to River (Mother of River). You can pick ordinary floral one made of banana tree, leaf and flowers.

Or just full of beautiful leaf and other flowers like above.

What about nice idea of using cabbage as a container?

This is also environmentally friendly one, made of bread. It can be good food to all fish.

This is funny one, bread in turtle shape.

This is how people do, make a wish with Krathong (flora vessel) with lighted candle..and float on to water. It brings you good luck and take away your bad things in life.

For me? I didn't do any, just doesn't feel like it but enjoy seeing people doing so. It was very windy and I feel so good with that.

Theme Day ; Doorway

Do you see the door overthere? It was pretty crowded ha? It was taken on last 2 years during Chinese New Year in Thailand. This is most famous temple for praying, as you can huge number of people walking through that door. It is considered the door which lead to God.

Happy Theme Day!

Rama IX Bridge

It could be more beautiful if I was at another side of river, but couldn't help when I was there for my work. This bridge is called Rama IX Bridge.

It is over the Chao Phraya river. The bridge was named in honour of King Bhumibol Adulyadej's 60th birthday; the 5 December opening date coincides with the King's birthday. It was the first cable-stayed bridge in Thailand and had the second longest cable-stayed span in the world when it opened in 1987

The original colour scheme, with white pylons and black cables, was replaced with an all yellow scheme representing the King in 2006

You might know ordinary fish cake, but I got special one here. Inside with Quail Egg, fried together make the taste so good. The shape as mini ball, dipped with sweet chili sauce.
