I agree the ride along the Mekong from Chiang Khan was really nice. I was not impressed with the glass walkway in Nong Khai at Wat Pha Tak Suea but like in your picture the views there were outstanding. Well worth the stop even if you don't pay to walk on the glass. If the OP is in this area he way want to also visit Thailand's newest UNESCO World Heritage site Phu Phra Bat Historical Park. It is mostly rock formation . If the OP goes to Nong Khai city I enjoyed Sala Keo Kou a Buddhist sculpture garden. Seems like the planned route will also go by Wat Phra That Pha Sorn Kaew in Phetchabun. One site that seems everyone posts on Instagram and was one of the more crowded sites I have been to in Isan.

Bueng Kan and Nakhon Nayok would fit the enjoyed them but do not plan on going back. The province of Nong Bua Lam Phu, I can not say I really enjoyed the first time and have no plans of going there again. There are a number of provinces similar to Amnat Chareon and Maha Sarakham that I would not say I enjoyed but I know I will transit in the future to get somewhere else. I still have a number of provinces I have not visited so my list is not complete. I also may learn of a place or event I missed in one of these provinces and decide to return.

I would like to understand how the Popular Contributors on the right side of my browsers works. I think prior to the thumbs down you got a point for any emoji on your posts. I believe a very unpopular member just posted thousands of post daily to be on the leader board. I believe the thumbs down takes away from the Popular Contributors stats and that poster is no longer in the Popular Contributors. If they do away with the thumbs down they should remove the Popular Contributors as well.

Not really a tracker issue but I have had issues with receiving SMS messages on both an AIS and TureMove prepaid Sim. Each of these SMS message had a fee and were eating up my balance even though I had never subscribed to receive these messages. I think you can stop these by calling *137 but has been a while since I had the issue.

Thanks for suggestion. I will put a note in my calendar to look for this event in 2026. I already have travel plans for this July.

Are these dragon boat racing or speed boat racing? I have been to some dragon boat racing at the Royal Thai Rowing Training Center about half way between Pattaya and Rayong it was planned to be at Maprachan reservoir but was moved for some reason. I would like to see speed boat racing but have not found details of an event. Thanks for the feedback.

Why the hard pass on some of these? I don't know enough about the candle festival so it may not really be my type of thing so is lower on my list. Is the hard pass on the Elephant Roundup because you don't like to see Elephants in captivity? I was living in Pattaya at the time I saw the firework festival but I would say it would be the worst time for a trip to Pattaya. Traffic is at a stand still for the weekend. I assume the hard pass on the rockets has to do with the danger?

I will always think of him as Big Bird no matter of the names he used before or after BigNok.

Sorry I misunderstood. I got it now. Thank you for clearing that up for me.

I thought that Murderbot was an Apple TV series. Do you get commercials after paying a subscription? I don't stream but was surprised by you seeing commercials.

Have you been to any festivals or events in Thailand that you would recommend? I enjoy going to some of the more unusual festivals but seem to only hear about after they have taken place rather than before with enough time to plan. The festivals I have enjoyed are below. Buffalo Races in Chonburi Rocket Festivals in Isan Elephant Roundup in Surin Firework Festival Pattaya The following I plan to do in the future but have not yet done. Ghost Festival Dan Sai Loei Yi Peng Lantern Festival Chiang Mai Vegetarian Festival Phuket Candle Festival Ubon Ratchathani I am not interested in the festivals that seem to be all about food and music but please add any festivals or events you have enjoyed.

Nothing about it in FM103 news today but usually have the reason for the outage the following day. I only follow the youtube channel.

You do understand that Africa is a continent not a country so has no single leader?

I don't post often in the threads on US politics but read them from time to time and it is not only the US that is obsessed. One Australian had a thread about where to buy a MAGA hat in Bangkok.

Aseannow seems to have a huge amount of posts about politics in the US but I have not read any on the upcoming Australian election. There are a number of Australians that post frequently about US politics but do they find their own country's election irrelevant or just to boring to post about? Why post everyday about a country where you do not get to vote and ignore the place that you can vote?
