Record of November, 2000 |
|
|
|
We travelled to Pattaya
at the end of October, 2000. |
|
|
For some reasons or else,
we used to visit only Pattaya. |
|
|
Although package tour to
Larn island is current in Pattaya, we travelled to Larn island by ordinary
boat |
|
from pier of Pattaya to
Larn island because price of package tour is rather expencive. |
|
|
Only travellers from
overseas seem to use expencive package tour. |
|
|
Festival called
Loikratoon seems to be similar to Toro Nagashi in Japan but it is a little
bit different. |
|
Loikratoon is kind of
festival to thank the God of Water with regard to agriculture, |
|
|
whereas the Japanese Toro
Nagashi is a ceremony to honer the memory of departed. |
|
|
You can enjoy carnival,
night stall, exhibition of dancing and singing by the children and so on. |
|
|
As for Loikratoon, there
is no gloomy mood of Toro Nagashi ceremony in Japan. |
|
|
Children are looking
forward to enjoying in the festival of Loikratoon which is being held |
|
|
on the night of full moon
in December in old calender. |
|
|
note: |
|
|
Toro Nagashi (灯籠流し): a
Buddhist ceremony in which paper lanterns are floated down a river, |
|
|
lake, or out to sea. |
