Thailand 2 – Wat Pho

 On our first full day in Bangkok, we went to Wat Pho and The Grand Palace.

Wat Pho is a very cool temple, next door to the Grand Palace, and home to one of the largest reclining Buddha statues in the world.

This was the coolest time of year in Bangkok, and it still got into the low 90s, with high humidity. On top of that, Thai temples require long pants or skirts. We were drinking plenty of bottled water, and discovered a great refreshment: chilled coconuts.

    Extremely colorful. I wouldn’t want to live anywhere in Asia but have learned from what I have seen and enjoyed some of it very much. They seem to have used a lot of gold, which would please Dave and makes more impressive buddha statues that all those I saw e.g. in China.

    Love, Terry
