December.....a month of cowboys and Christmas

12/30/2012

Pakchong Cowboy Countdown Festival

Living in and near cowboy city, the purchase of cowboy attire is a must. Having resisted any such purchases for 4 years, I was finally issued with my own cowboy shirt by my department at school...which is the same as the other 40 members, but hey ho, I will wear it with pride to any number of the cowboy events that I happen to attend in this busy season.

The Thais love to party and December is the season of festivals- the biggest being New Year. Every local town, worth it's salt will have a cowboy festival to celebrate- and no matter how many, there always seem to be enough cowboys to go around. For anyone visiting the Khao Yai at this time of year, I recommend that you seek one out. They're free to attend- just turn up, find a table or hay bale to sit on, buy a tower of beer and some food and enjoy the show- both on and off the stage. If you are a westerner and appropriately dressed (cowboy shirt at the least), then you are certain to get a lot of attention, all positive, and often in the form of offers to join another table or to accept a glass of beer or two.

Entrants for the Santa Claus Competition

Even though the Buddhist Thais do not celebrate Christmas, they are happy to get into the spirit of things if there is a foreigner around who does celebrate it. The Christmas celebrations include dressing up as Santa Claus, or a cowboy of course, and then having the best Santa Claus competition and best Santee competition (not pictured here). I had not come across Santee until I came to Thailand...she's not your traditional Mama Claus, but more of a young, pole-dancing wayward niece of Father Christmas.
A true indication of the lengths Thais in this area will go to, to make you feel welcome came this Christmas. Having gone around to the relatives of Deaw to give them cookies and chocolates for Christmas, I had a complete surprise on Boxing Day when his entire family tuned up at the hut to wish me a Merry Christmas. They were armed with Christmas gifts and handmade cards from the children and it really did make this festival for me.

So, if you are in Thailand in the next month or two and fancy combining a jungle trip with a taste of real Thailand, then get in touch and come and visit. At this time of year, the days are lear, dry and bright and Pakchong provides a welcome break from the heat and humidity of the rest of Thailand....the 7th best ozone in the world didn't you know?

There are also some great festivals left in the pipeline, the next one being the Muak Lek Cow's Milk (and therefore cowboy) festival in January. So saddle up and come join us :)

Happy New Year to Everyone...and may 2013 be a great one for you.

Dr joy is a trust worthy spell caster and he will be of great help to you. I never believed in spell casting but After 4 years of marriage my husband left me because I lost my womb, and i was unable to give birth to children. I felt like my life has come to an end, and i almost committed suicide, i was emotionally down for a very long time, but thanks to this spell caster called Dr joy whom i met online after my friend Becky Ross told me how he also helped her to bring back her husband in less than 2 days. I believed her and decided to give Dr joy a try and i contacted him on his email [email protected]. and explained my problems to him. He laughed and told me that In less than 2 days, my Husband will come back to me again, and that he will restore my womb and i will give birth to children. At first i thought it was a joke but i took courage and believed as Dr joy has said and it did happen just as this Great spell caster said, My husband called me and was crying, begging for forgiveness. I forgive him and today i am so glad that all worries and problems has gone away, and we are even happier than before, another good news is that i am pregnant now, and very soon we will have our baby. Dr joy is really a gifted and a powerful spiritual man and i will not stop publishing him because he is a wonderful man. I advice you all If you have a problem and you are looking for a real and genuine spell caster to solve all your problems just Contact Dr joy on his email on [email protected]. because he will always help you to solve all problems. Once again thank you Dr joy. Thank you, thank you.

My wish right now is that God should continue to bless Dr Emu for his good works towards the life of those people who are heart broken. My name is Michael DeBruin and I am from the USA, it's been a while since my lover's attitude changed from being the caring type she has been to me, but later turned out not to be caring at all. But not long, I later discovered that my lover was having an affair with someone else. and also she told me she doesn't need me after all we pass through then a friend told me about a spell caster. that with the spell I will get back my woman, I took his cell number then called him and also what's-app him which he reply to me and I did some sacrifices to the spell man and he bought the items for me which he used for the sacrifices and later called me that before 48 hours my love will come back to me and now we are more in love with each other than ever. you can reach him on WhatsApp +2347012841542 or reach him via mail ; [email protected] , my lover returned back and broke up with the other guy she was having a relationship with... Thank you Dr Emu.

First, I want to complement this page administrator for creating this platform for us to express our feelings. Herpes is a serious and recurring disease which can't be cured through drugs or injections by the American doctors but the best way to deal with herpes is by taking natural herbs medicine from Dr Moi the greatest herbalist doctor in the world and is only few American doctors that know about this herbal medicine from Dr Moi .. I have read about Dr Moi the great herbalist doctor from African who can cure disease with his powerful herbal medicine. for the people suffering from the following diseases, Herpes,HIV/Aids, Cancer, Also, Hepatitis, Diabetes, Hpv, Infections ETC should contact him for his herbal medicine because i am a living testimony and i was cured of herpes. Although, i sent him what he requested and he sent me his medicine through UPS courier delivery company which i took for 2 weeks and today when i went for test i was tested herpes negative. you can reach him through his email: [email protected] Whatsapp him Directly Through +254772376126

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.

Do you find your problem hard for you? Are you finding it difficult looking for a reliable herbal healer to cure your cancer? I say this because I have been helped by Lord Krish Spiritual in restoring happiness into my life. My mother has been sick with Stage 4 Melanoma Cancer which nearly took the life of my mother. I was sad because of this sickness and I didn't know what to do to save my mother's life. I would never have met Lord Krish if my friend had not introduced him to me by telling me about a spell caster who has helped so many people worldwide. I contacted Lord Krish at [email protected] and within 3 days, I received herbal medicine from him through a courier and I used it on my mother. Within a week, mother was cured and healed. I would advise anyone out there to Contact Lord Krish at [email protected] and meet him to help you
