We’re back and had a wonderful trip to the islands in the gulf of Thailand and the west coast of Thailand. The first set of photos is of our time in Koh Tao, Koh Samui, and Angthong National Marine Park.

Every now and then we get to thinking about all the things that people who spend two weeks in Thailand have seen that we haven’t. Like the Reclining Buddha of Wat Pho, or the (in)famous Khao San Road. So we decided to head on over to the area most popular with tourists and check it […]

Emily, who I’d met the night before, had arranged with our guest house for a driver to take her on a tour of the Floating Village at the Tonlé Sap River and was kind enough to allow me to join her. This was a nice change of pace from temple tours, and was […]

The admission included passes to the National Treasures museam which was full of historical rgalia, royal decorations and […]

Fiona and I decided to do a little further exploring in Bangkok today, so we took the Skytrain to the last stop at the central river pier. The Chao Phraya River is the main river that runs through Bangkok. We took a river boat to a popular tourist area near the […]
