Gaybutton Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Loy Kratong is one of the most fun-filled of all the Thai holidays and this year it falls on Sunday, November 5. Most of the festivities take place at night. Many of the most popular beach concessions are offering excellent buffet dinners at equally excellent prices. Tickets are on sale for these buffets and it is best to purchase yours as soon as possible if you have not already done so. The weather has been perfect for this holiday for several days and is expected to remain perfect through Sunday. It's an event you won't want to miss if you are fortunate enough to be in Thailand. The bars will be open. Please be careful. Pattaya is already going through a lot of accident problems due to drunk drivers and they're all going to be out there driving drunk that night. Also, watch out for pickpockets and snatchers. Don't carry any more cash than necessary and I would advise leaving your expensive items in your room safe. If you are going to carry a camera, be especially cautious of thieves.
