A Smiley Face in the Sky
I guess a lot of us are not happy with the political situation in Bangkok and you can really feel the tension between 2 parties of red and yellow. It’s best not to put on clothes in these 2 colors, unless you are looking for trouble or showing your support for a particular party. To me, it’s best to play safe and act dumb. But I really wonder if there will be bl**d on the street? Sigh…
But there is something here tonight that cheered me up. As we were driving back home, and the sky was very dark even if it’s only 6.30pm, we saw a smiley face in the sky. It was Isabelle who saw it first and kept telling me, “Mommy mommy, look at the moon!”

A smiley face in the sky, can you see it?
I recited this from The Nation:
When Jupiter and Venus meet the Moon, there is smile in the sky. But astronomers call this rare natural phenomenon as Earth Shine because the light on the Moon is the reflection from Earth.
Even my kids were excited to see the stars and moon “arranged” in such a way. It did put a smile on everyone of us.

Ya, I can see it!! Isabelle really observant lehh…
We saw it too and it was really really cool!!!
Well, at least the moon is smiling at you. Lets pray and hope that Bangkok political struggle will resolve asap. It is not doing any good to the country economy and tourism.
hey i also managed to capture such wonderful moment!
i was on my way back to malacca from cheras ytday….say the crescent and 2 stars but didnt notice the smiley face.
We miss it! We knew about it but didnt went out to see it! By today the only thing left is the smiley face without the eyes!
hey, i saw that too!! tried to capture it using my phone camera, but cant *sigh*
wow, seems like a lot of people saw this great happening
I saw this too but your picture is clearer then mine
Thanks to my lousy handphone camera
It does look great isn’t it
Glad that you all spotted it. I missed it. My boy did told me he saw moon, but I didn’t bother to take a 2nd look on it and always thought that it is just a normal curving moon..sigh…Anyway it is a nice arrangement on the sky that night..
