  | Boat races + Candles in Sakon Nakhon & Nan There seems to be several 'boat race ceremonies' coming up in the 11th Lunar month .. on the Chayo Praya & MeKong + lakes. Sakon Nakhon & Nan both have races associated the floating candles. Perhaps the boats try to 'splash out' the candles with their rooster tail. ? Me thinks the 11th lunar month is early this year.. mid september. Any body been .. or can suggest where long boat racing might be viewed. ??
