The King's Birthday

On Dec 5, the King Of Thailand, HM King Bhumibol Asulyadej turned 82 and the country is still celebrating the event. This photo was taken on Ratchadamneon Klang Road (the Kings Road) and the entire road was completely covered in lights. Houses, Businesses, and roads are covered in his picture with banners and ribbons everywhere. The biggest surprise to me were the fireworks that began at 10 pm every night. No one warned me and my first night of jet lag, I turned in about 9. When everything went off at 10, I thought the hotel was under attack.
