Tradition: New Year Day gift exchange
Christmas is a christian holiday, not generally celebrated by Buddhists. There are some local enclaves where Christianity is practiced.
Don't expect too many Christmas presents from Thais, even though they are quite willing to accept Christmas presents.
Over the years it's been my experience that Thais exchange gifts on New Years day. It's a good idea to have a few gifts at hand for any visitors on New Year Day.

Friday Cadet Event
I enjoy photographing people, editing the pictures becomes somewhat of a social study. Some group photos I count the number of mobile phones in use.
Some faces obviously indicate they'd really prefer to be doing something else right now.
Many of these photos where taken across the football field, so there was little posing for the camera: au natural

Location settings follow you
Don't carry my mobile phone regularly. It's obvious from my timeline on Google maps. Carried it today and my timeline reflects when I started this trip, how long I traveled and how many kilometers I drove

Cool and Dry er
Temperature at 6:30 am. I trust the old thermometer (right) as it was identical to a now replaced thermometer. Time to get a digital thermometer.
Actual and feels like temperatures are now closer aligned, a sign of less humidity in the air
Dryer air can mean dryer skin, especially if you take long hot showers in the colder weather. The remedy might just be a Thai oil massage. Hydrate your eyes with occasional eye drops or a healthy cry.

Dam ?
Couldn't get the water to hold still for these four pictures, looks like they are building a dam with seaweed. Would not be surprised if it becomes a waterlily pond
