RePost: Yi Peng, and then some...with Added Special Features!
In honor of the two year anniversary (two years?!?) of mine and Nellie's misadventure to the Yi Peng Ceremony, the opening ceremony of Thailand's famous Lantern Festival called Loi Kratong, and in light of Throwback Thursday, I am reposting one of my favorite stories of life. This experience encompassed very much of what my year in Thailand was like - unexpected, adventurous, culturally informative, and loads of fun.
As I re-reeled the day of Yi Peng in my mind this morning, I couldn't help feeling grateful for the Lord's goodness - He turns what we see as disappointment and flawed timing into something beyond what we could have ever imagined (He promises this, how do I forget?). Oh, how I have needed to remember that this year.
I have uploaded photos and videos from the ceremony in the post before this one.
Sit back, relax with a cup of green or oolong tea, and enjoy a few (or many) laughs.

It's where those high-heeled wedges and leather purse
first trekked on through the mud.... ;)
