The Other Side Of Bangkok - Bike Tour

A former colleague of mine started a bike tour company, so we went on their A Taste of Bangkok Tour, which took us to several quick stops to get a "taste" of Bangkok.

Our first stop was Wat Arun


These are not in order - here's another temple.  Can't remember the name



It had a bell, which you rung for good luck.  Nathan will likely get into Harvard


At one point, we stopped at a small restaurant to try some world famous (in Thailand) pork Sa-Tay



 


We also stopped at a Chinese temple to feed some turtles (for good luck)



Crossing the river with our bikes




We finally found some fish to feed



Here's a very crowded China town.  There was a fire here as well, which didn't help my claustrophobia.


One of the last stops was the Fresh Flower Market

Samui - Elephant Sanctuary

I took Nuch to the airport this day, so I could not join, but I was told the elephant sanctuary was amazing.

Samui - Our Crib

 I've been very fortunate with Airbnb recently with great prices and great views.
