The least favourite season, the wet season, has just ended.  The end was marked by the Loy Krathong festival in which a tribute is made to the water by launching wreaths into the river.  The first day of the following cool season was overcast, grey and quite chilly.  We had some friends staying who arrived on that day and it felt like they had brought the English weather with them.  Most of my kids didn’t come into school and some of the ones that did come in were wearing jeans and jackets!  Even though it was cold for the Thais I was still comfortable wearing flip flops, shorts and a t-shirt.  Since then the weather has been back to its old self and the sun has been out and it’s been pretty hot but not as humid as before which makes a nice change.  The cool season lasts until around March and then it is the hot season.  I thought the wet season was hot enough so it should be interesting to see how it gets out here.
