Loy Loy Krathong, the 12th Full Moon of the Year

Today Wed 28th Nov, 55 is the full moon day on the 12th lunar month, it is the day we in the Kingdom cerebrate the Loy Krathong ( ลอยกระทง ) day. It is the day to thank and pay respect to the Goddess of Water, and apologise her that we consume water and also pollute it.

Even H.M. the King also participated this important event on the River of Kings (ChaoPraya River). Today in the afternoon, some of us who were free from OR services dressed up and walked in the parade, although some including me had to work in the OR, but we are really happy to have smiles on our faces.

We finally got the New นางนพมาศ (หรือ Miss Loy Krathong), she is now the second year Resident in the Department.
