stranded, no more

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) said last night it had contacted over 600 Singaporeans in Bangkok, and helped about 490 of them get out. The latest group left Bangkok for Phuket last night to catch a flight home.
About 120 Singaporeans are now left in Bangkok, including those 'who have decided to remain for various reasons', the spokesman said. "

พระจันทร์ยิ้ม

This is what I saw at around 7pm. Well, if it wasn't for today, I wouldn't realise that I seldom look at the sky at all. I first saw many people with their camera looking towards the direction of the sky and so I looked up too.

The moon smiles tonight


The science behind it (which I am unable to explain)

I found this picture on the internet..The 3rd picture dates 29nov-2dec 2008 where you can see the "smiley face" (:

And then some guy was trying to explain to me the myth behind this occurrence but I couldn't really understand him.. Only knew he said something about someone smiling because the 2 someone are now reunited, etc etc. With my limited thai knowledge, I tried to look it up the Internet by typing เรื่องพระจันทร์ยิ้ม (the story of พระจันทร์ยิ้ม) but I couldn't find anything. haha
