Photos From Ayutthaya

 

Glen, Carol, Terri, and Pat.
And some stupas and a prang.

So we've got that going for us.

will get the Caddyshack reference?
Writer: I know my readers.  I have 
no doubts!)

This is us.  And someone else.



Siam's gonna be the witnessTo the ultimate test of cerebral fitnessThis grips me more than would a muddy old riverOr reclining Buddha

(Editor: Glad to see you haven't
stop using lyrics from 70's and 80's
pop songs.  Writer: It's guaranteed!)


Four Americans, Three Prangs.

We were stupified by these!









Bats, but not a belfry.

Thai people like to rent old-style clothes
and pose for pictures (Insta!) in
various places in the temples.  The
costume rental shop is right across the
street.  I couldn't get Carol interested
in us renting clothes.  It would make
for a great blog post!  (Editor: Really,
you tried?  Writer: No.)





Buddha carved into a banyan tree.

Stunning colors on this prang.

The Leaning Tower of Ayutthaya
is almost as famous as that
similar (yet taller) tower in
Pisa, Italy.


Readers, why don't you elongate
your ears like this?
