This year in 2006 Loy Krathong festival on the full moon it's 12 of November. In the same time there was a climbing competition started at Chiang Mai that was two days climbing. On the first day there are bouldering competition in the afternoon. We have time in the morning so we went to a place called Royal Flora Ratchaphruek it the biggest flower park in Thailand and it was very beautiful. Everyone went there in Chiang Mai to see.
In the bouldering competition there are 30 routes to climb but they count only the three best score in the route that you climb. You must climb in 2 hours but there are only 2 lines to stand and I climb in the beginner category. I got the second place for bouldering competition and I'm very proud of myself because I never knew that I could do till this far and there are also adults climbing in this category.
On the second day there are difficulty climbing competition at the Peak it the biggest climbing wall in Chiang Mai it 15 m. high. In my category we have to climb in top rope in the semi final we have to complete one route and for me it's not to hard but I have to becareful about the faul because I have to use the correct hole in the route. In the semi final I could arrive on the top so I'm one of the 8 person to go to the final round. That evening I go in the final round with my 4 other friends and I'm the last person to climb in the final route. I think the route is hard because I heard it from the microphone that nobody had finish the route also my best friend Jan she had faul in the final route. When I was climb I felt very exciting and there was a lot of people watching me and in the end I got to the top and I was very happy that I made it but the judges gave faul because I touch the wrong hole before the top. But it's OK because still I got the first place in difficulty climbing competition and finally I got the first place for the ranking result.
In this match I felt very happy because I got the first place and it also my first time to get first place in this year and I got to go lot of places in this match and I got to go and celebrate the Loy Krathong festival.
