Floating rafts for the Loy Krathong Festival
November 15th, 2024
As we approached the hotel, I noticed that there were vendors up selling what looked like flower arrangements. Sophon explained that it was the annual Loy Krathong festival, where you light a candle on a small raft and set it afloat. It is supposed to wash away bad luck. After checking in to our hotel, we set out to the park to purchase a couple of baskets and to set our lanterns afloat!
Afterwards we went to EmSphere and got bowl of Thai boat noodles. The soup is rich and flavorful made with pork, ginger green onion, garlic cilantro and I think five spice. I have also noticed that it varies from place to place and this bowl was very spicey. I always think I can handle spice, which I can but Thai spice is an entirely different level!
