Little Miss Loy Krathong 2023


Hello everyone welcome or welcome back to my blog. Yesterday was our Loy Krathong Celebration at school. Loy Krathong is a festival Thai people celebrate on the full moon night of the twelfth month of the Lunar Calendar. 

They usually celebrate this in November. It is always considered an occasion for joy, gratitude, and new beginnings. 

As part of the program, there was a contest called Little Miss Loy Krathong 2023. The participants were from Grades 5-6. 

They all showcased their talents in singing, dancing, playing instruments, sketching, and oral speech. From the IEP department, 

I'd like to congratulate my student from Y5A, Nathamon for winning the major prize. I'm super proud of you.

Dinner Buffet with Sunset View via Meridian Cruise


I was invited by Ma'am Sia, my co-teacher last October for her birthday celebration. I got excited because it was the first time in my 14 years here in Thailand to be on a dinner cruise.  Perhaps, I don't know how to book or have no idea whatsoever. Probably waiting for someone to invite me or tell me how to book online. I know it's not rocket science, but partly because I already know that it's very expensive.  I was just observing and looking at some videos and pictures of my friends who had been there. Alas! Ma'am Sia has tried many dinner cruises in her entire life because when her family members, relatives, and friends visited Thailand, she would take them there. 




I learned that it's not that expensive if you look for websites that offer a 50% discount. She claimed that Meridian had the best dinner in all. She booked 4 tickets for her chosen friends via Meridan Cruise Sunset View at 6PM. The meeting point was at Icon Siam Mall. The river is called Chaopraya. Its Thai name in English is "Mother of Water" or "MaeNam".  



We arrived an hour early, so we strolled around and explored Icon Siam's market and tried some"free taste" food, as we passed by. It was a fun experience. Then, we boarded at our call time at 6PM. It was a two-hour trip cruising around Chaopraya looking at the hotel buildings, temples, and shopping malls from afar. We sat down and watched the sunset while listening to the live band singing Thai, English, and Tagalog songs. It was a dinner buffet. The food was sumptuous and delicious. There was a group of Pinoys who were also there singing Tagalog songs together with us. We were acknowledged by the singers at our table. The singers were fantastic! 


They served seafood (oysters, crabs, shrimps, prawns, clams, squids), beef steak, chicken curry, seafood tom yum, shrimp fried rice, fried chicken, spring rolls, stir-fried chicken, bell pepper, and cashew, varieties of salad dishes, cakes and pastries, soft drinks, tea, coffee.





I will definitely come back. I would like to try to book and reserve seats for my family and close friends in the future.

Sometimes, it's not easy to go through. Maybe you don't wanna deal with Thai who can't speak English. Perhaps, too much hassle to get there via taxi from your hotel or somewhere in Bangkok. If you want my assistance to help you book your reservation or probably help you with getting a taxi, please email me at teeleen7@gmail.com or lynne_osias@yahoo.com.  Here is my FB page: elektra7577.
