December 18 (Part 1): Flower Market and Wat Pho

Today we officially started our adventure through Thai culture.  We had a half day tour around the Flower Market, temples of Bangkok and the Grand Palace. We started the morning with our tour guide Mook taking the sky train and a ferry to see the flower market and Wat Pho which is a reclining Buddha that is 50 feet high and 140 feet long.

50 Thai Baht for 4 dozen roses, that's less than 2 dollars!

  1. Wow, what a great experience you are having. Looks like the weather has been nice. I admire you for trying the different foods. Mom would love to have a garden full of flowers like those in the market. This is so much fun being able to see your adventure. Thanks for sharing. Love, DAD
