Can you buy a Kratong near the Hilton and release on the beach?

[HHTel]

Very likely. They're sold pretty much everywhere today.

What's the situation like at Khao Tao, BB? Mrs Buksi wants to Loy there later this evening ... but Mr Buksi is not keen on the gridlocked shitfight of getting a truck in and out of there and trying to park!

[Big Boy]

It will be gridlock until about 10pm. Go down after 10, and you'll get parked in the temple. Still quite busy, but very nice.

Of course, the traffic lights to let you in and out of Khao Tao are still flashing amber or red.

If you're there after 10, you might see us there.

A few snaps from Khao Tao tonight:

Did you go? Mrs BB was itching to go, and we eventually left home about 21:20. There was still quite a queue into Khao Tao, but parking in the temple was still quite easy.

Of course, busiest night of the year, and they still didn't bother using the 'White Elephant' traffic lights for traffic control. Instead, they had about 20 people from Sawang Rescue directing traffic - only in Thailand!!!

It was the same old, same old when we got there, but very nice all the same.
