Her Majesty Queen Sirikit's Birthday - August 12th

[MwD]

Has anybody been to the festivities in Bangkok (Sanam Luang and Ratchadamnoen) on previous years ?

I'm thinking of taking the troops (wife and 2 kids), and would appreciate any comments/reviews from other members who have been.

Alternatively, is anything special happening in Hua Hin ?

Thanks.
