Christmas On The Street



With Thailand only having 2 % Christians (not sure of the current statistics), Christmas is not such a big deal here like back home. Christmas celebrations are limited in the churches and a few homes. December 25th is even a working day. So, when we heard that there'll be a Christmas Program at the city center, our family was happy, took the opportunity and went. It felt so good to hear Christmas carols, see all the presentations and even the street was very well decorated.

These girls are soo cute and they dance so well.


All these decorations are in the middle of the street. They purposely closed down the street for this event.



Everybody loves weekend, it is the time for leisure, recreation and other religious activities. And when everyone is having a grand time, you want to capture it and share it with others. That’s why Weekend Snapshot is here for you. Come and join the fun here.

That's so wonderful they made that celebration for the Christians! :) I couldn't even imagine living in a non-Christian environment, that would be hard during the holidays.

My Weekend Snapshot photo is up too! :)
