Back in 2007 November 8 was Loy Krathong. The Thai New Year
Pattaya City police geared up for the annual water festival by conducting street sweeps of undesirables in order to clean up the coastal city’s image for the traditional festival. No kathoeys, street walkers, insane people allowed. Last year the boys in blue had banned fireworks and instituted shore patrols to prevent any krathongs or offerings from entering the sea. Water worship was relegated to the reservoir, polluting the drinking water. I stayed in Jomtien and made love to my mistress.
Mem and I had a baby boy from that night’s union.
My boy Fenway. Chok Dee.
