On To Bangkok



Oh my gosh!!! What an experience this place is. Bangkok is BIG, BUSY and HECTIC. We were in an area of town that was pretty far from the airport but close to one of the early king's palace (not sure how many there are). Guess the current king, who is well loved by his people, decided to build his own palace and open this one up to the public so they could enjoy it. Jeff had a chance to visit it while he waited for me to come in. The architecture is absolutely fabulous – the gardens and buildings are just exquisite.
We were in a pretty simple place that definitely catered to the backpackers. Enjoyed wandering the streets and ate at a fabulous restaurant with a number of vegetarian options
