This year's Loy Krathong festival (2009) is held on the 2nd of November.

Witness how thousands of people float their "Krathongs", a sort of banana–leaf cup, over local ponds or rivers to float away sins and bad luck as well as to express apologies to the River Goddess for polluting its waterways.

For more information visit our site on Loy Krathong or simply reply to this thread.

Best wishes,
