Loy Krathong 2017 Yee Peng Lantern Festival Chiang Mai

I finally got around to editing a video taken this year at the Loy Kratong Yee Peng celebrations. My wife and I let off our own lantern wishing for good things ahead, as is the tradition.

We found a spot in the heart of the action for this video, which shows a non stop stream of lanterns being launched into the night sky. We were Along the Ping River next to a bridge. The sound isn't ideal (birds don't make noise like this at night), but it is 5:1 surround sound and relaxing, or you can mute it.

This is a very simple video, just something to gaze at when you need something to help you sleep at night. I guess counting the lanterns might be like the old remedy of counting sheep. I will get around to adding some photos from 2017's Yee Peng in Chiang Mai when I can.
