Bangkok Travelbug Dec 2021 Merry Christmas from Nakhon Pathom 2021

Hello
Merry Christmas from Nakhon Pathom 2021
Dear friends and readers of the Bangkok Travelbug,
Welcome back to the Bangkok Travelbug. With Christmas round the corner and with the prevailing festive mood, I'm deferring the usual Bangkok Travelbug issue to January next year.
In previous years, I've shown you beautiful photos of the dazzling lights in downtown Bangkok. As I don't live there anymore, I thought I'd share with you Christmas images from two provinces; one just 30 km west of Bangkok and another 400 km north-east of Bangkok.
Nakhon Pathom, a province on the western suburbs of Bangkok, is now my home province. Here are some Christmas images from Nakhon Pathom.

In a recent visit to Buriram, 400 km north-east of Bangkok, we were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful Christmas lights in a restaurant located near the old city moat. We had a fabulous dinner in a wonderful atmosphere.

This is our second Christmas since we moved into our new home in Nakhon Pathom and the second time I'm putting up
Christmas trees and decorations at home. I revived this family tradition last year.
Putting up a tree at Christmas is something my mother has done for as long as I remember. In my earlier years I was living in an apartment and didn't have the space. I'm now able to revive this family tradition in memory of dear Mother.
Allow me to share with you Christmas photos from our home and garden.

My year-end wishes to you my dear friends are that you have hope for
better things to come, peace in your lives and joy in all that you do.
Have a warm and Merry Christmas with your families and a very Happy New Year in 2022. Have a safe, healthy and happy year ahead.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2022!
