BANGKOK
The boat is able to navigate a long way up river & we are parked quite close to down town Bangkok...
where I am heading to a Royal complex of temples & palaces. Incredible. Don't see how anyone gets any praying done...
Don't see how the guide did not lose anyone...
Going around bare legged is not allowed so the ladies buy sarongs...Don't know who she is, Just got in the way for some reason...
Amazing buildings.
I think that's it for the Temple complex..& it is so many people, so many temples.
Now heading to a boat ride.... & past these ladies preparing lunch...
onto the river now, passing houses &
under bridges....
sneak a glimpse of the royal barges...in their special housing...
back on shore....& a visit to another temple... this one with visiting monks...
That was just a sampling of the first day in & around Bangkok.
Need to spend a lot more time here.
