First day in Bangkok, from land to sky to water and the temple Wat Pho... Bangkok's oldest Buddhist temple.
I am traveling with my friend and fellow teacher in Seoul, Sara.
The giant reclining Buddha ... covered in gold and wrapped up like a present in the hand painted temple. For a small offering you are given a cup of coins that can then be prayerfully offered in dozens of metal bowls along the length of the Buddha's body. Its a nice way to walk through the temple... a grateful beginning to my journey.
Color! How I have missed you! Messy freedom and all that makes a developing country developing. More than I have realized, I really miss the smells, sounds and the dirt of a tropical city.
Early evening in Bangkok sitting on a slightly raised outdoor wooden platform for dinner. Just a block away from the main road in Bangkok but it feels like our own secret world.
Breakfast at our hostel(Suk 11) in Bangkok. Getting ready to fly south to the island of Kho Phi Phi for four days of being surrounded by the sea and doing anything or nothing!

One could conclude that a happy face is a beautiful face!
And when it rained it didn't matter.
Back in Bangkok.....
Chattachuk Market.... an infinite experience of people watching, street food eating, bargain shopping and culture immersing.
And if all things move in a circular motion, then I'm sure I'll end up in Thailand again.
There are many paths up the mountain and one path leads you by a Buddhist temple. The temple is small, quiet and beautiful. Just the kind of place that you would hope to find.
