In
the Twelfth Lunar Month, I hear people talking about Loy Krathong celebration
day. This day is celebrated annually on the Full-Moon day. Every year my cousins
come to my house this day. When I go to kitchen I smell some food that smell
so good that make me hungry. And I hear the bell. I am so happy. When I hear
the bell ring, I open the door and it is my aunt. When my aunt comes to my house
she goes to kitchen right away and helps my mom to cook Phud Thai and something
else. Phud Thai tastes sweet and sour. Now everybody in my family comes to my
house. Everybody talks and eat dinner. I'm so happy that day. When we finish
eating. We make krathongs. Krathongs is made from banana leaf and stem, and
decorated with some flower. When we finish making krathongs we go to river to
float the krathong. Before we put krathong in the water we have to wish for
good things and wipe away the bad things with krathong. And I touch the water
first before I put krathong on the water. After wishing we put krathongs on
the water and they float away beautifully. That day I see many krathongs in
the river and I have so much fun.
