Most tourists plan their vacations months in advance. Unfortunately Thailand Tourism Agencies provide little help for such advance planning. The Wax Castle Festival is held according to the lunar calendar, and therefore is on different days every year. Traditionally the celebration is held during five days concluding with the October full moon. Based on tradition, I would suggest the 2015 Wax Castle Festival will be held from 23 to 27 October. There are a number of other events in nearby areas prior to the festival. If you can, come a few days early. Watch the wax craft and boat races. 2004 Full Moon Day Oct 28 2007 Full Moon Day Oct 26 ![]() 2008 Full Moon Day Oct 14 2006 Full Moon Day Oct 4 ![]() 2013 Full Moon Day Oct 19 2014 Full Moon Day Oct 8 |

Pesky travelers
The neighbors had done some plowing, causing ants to look for new homes. Cut all plants touching the house, then baby powder around the entire house. Ants are looking elsewhere |

My gutters have been cleaned
Continued HOT Sunday and Monday, similar as today (Saturday). Temperature hovering around 40 with feels like at around 43 - 44 (110F). Thai Meteorological Department animated satellite image gives you a good picture of what is coming. Just click the 10 or 25 frame button. None of the weather services can agree on the severity of the thunderstorms, forecasting anywhere from 40% to 80% coverage. Wednesday seems to be the most rainfall. |

I've been hoping for a long time
Thai govt 'hopes' to see a weaker baht Reuters A weaker baht would help the Thai economy, exports, tourism, you name it. And I could once again have some major parties |

Clean your gutters
High temperatures through the weekend
Monday Tuesday slight chance of rain Thunderstorms moving in around Wednesday for the remainder of the week. UPDATED: During 21- 24 Apr, the rather strong high pressure will extent a ridge covering upper Thailand and the South China Sea. Summer thunderstorms, including isolated gusty wind and hail, are expected in the upper country. People should beware of the severe conditions and keep away from unsecured buildings. |
