Thailand Trip

Just landed in Bangkok,
suddenly this reminded me a lot of Jakarta

Ferris Wheel in Asiatique.


Could never leave a place without getting some postcard!

We rented a traditional Thailand costume and took picture with it
Fell in love with the headpiece!

Seen on the road accross the Grand Palace
People sold micellanous items on the street..
Calculator, cooling pad, plastic jar, pen etc, all at one tarp

Golden temples and lavish shrines are common sights
in the middle of Bangkok hustle-bustle


I won't be surprise if they say Thailand has the biggest
women participation at workplace rate, not only in Asia but I guess
around the world. Even the bus kenek are woman

In contrary, male take what traditionally is female job hehe..
A lady-boy cabaret that took our breath away

Took the cheapest train to Ayutthaya from Bangkok.
We paid 15 baht (50 cent/Rp 5.000) for the 3,5 hours trip
along the Bangkok- Ayutthaya country road.

Thailand deep Buddhism culture is felt everywhere we go
If only you were there, you'd know the real hype when these people
are on the "change the Buddha-linen" parade.
The yellow sheet over their is Buddha's clothing (please be reminded
that the Buddha we're talking about is around 5-7 m long)

Kids fighter is nothing strange here and Muay Thai is
comparable to dangdutan in Indonesia... (I mean they are everywhere)

A very well- located Thai massage parlor
(exactly next to our hotel!)
