Haha... yup... that's just normal, everyday Bangkok traffic - you're right! The lights are very pretty- I think you found the perfect place to stand and enjoy them. Happy Mother's Day!
@morganthailand - this is actually taken out of the car with me sort of hanging out of the passenger side window to get it :) No need to tell my boyfriend to slow down as "luckily" the traffic was at a complete stand still ;)
