We went to Wat Po. It is basically like a temple. The first place we went was the Royal Palace. Both were nice to see, but I wasn’t really feeling very good this morning. I drank a little too much last night, and although I wasn’t drunk, I think it took a toll on my body. The lack of sleep hasn’t been too helpful either. I’ve been kind of sniffling a little today, maybe the onset of a cold…

After we visited the temples we took a water taxi to our hotel area. The water taxi was different. It was along a dirty little canal, in fact it was more like an alley than a canal. All the houses/apartments that lined the water were really in bad shape, and you really got the feeling that, that is the way many Thais live. I’ve got pics of all that I did today, but I don’t have time to upload them. Maybe on the train tonight I can at least work with them and get ready to upload when I get internet access. We’ve got a thirteen hour train ride north… I can’t tell you the name of the city because I can’t remember it, but it should be fun.

I decided to buy the gps today. It doesn’t have all the goodies that I wanted, but it was a really good deal. I got it for almost half what it would have cost in Dubai.
