Loi Krathong Festival in Chiang Mai Thailand


I just had to post this as it was one of the most spectacular things I have every seen at the festival. Here in North Thailand the Loi Krathong Festival is much different than anywhere in the Kingdom. In the small town of Mae Jo north of Chiang Mai they started the festival on Saturday night by launching hot air balloons calld "Khom Loy". I went with my wife and friends and took this short video. We are not talking about a few Khom Loy but thousands upon thousands all at the same time. You got to see this.

that was astounding and beautiful. More than kung pow chicken. That was great, I just learned about this secret. There is a spiritual thing about those lanterns. Neat. Don't try to count them all.
