]]> Comment on Bangkok and Ayutthaya, Thailand by Planning in Progress - Travel Sage https://travelsage.org/bangkok-ayutthaya/#comment-67 Tue, 26 Mar 2024 20:29:10 +0000 https://travelsage.org/?p=3315#comment-67 […] Since we won’t have much time after we are dropped off at our hotel to get ready for the evening tour, I opted to book a hotel that was very close to the meeting point for the food tour. I got a room for 2 people at the 4-star Mandarin Hotel* for a total of USD$78.76, including taxes, breakfast, and free cancellation. I also booked Kiwi Taxi to pick us up at our hotel on day two and take us back to the ship. The tour company would have taken us to the ship but they would charge US$125 and Kiwi Taxi only charges US$69. (Update: Check out the actual trip report from the Bangkok (Laem Chabang) port of call.) […]

The shacks in Thailand are handed down from generation to generation. If someone has enough money to buy the waterfront property, then they put a new house on it!

Thanks Mary Jo! I’m very thankful for my days at sea when I can write and sleep. Although, I guess I’m not getting enough days at sea because I’m now 3 blog posts behind!

Ms Pookie! I love Ms Pookie! She does have quite a round face and maybe some mischief in her smile. The food seems very prominent in Thailand. In fact it seems downright constant! Enough to warm a Strega Nona’a heart.
The shacks along the water – they remind me of this one wharf in Provincetown, Captain Jack’s wharf, that is a string of various ramshackle shacks that serve as dwellings in the summer. And what a pretty penny it is to rent one of those shacks!
How very funny and, at the same time, very awful it is to see the heads missing on all those Buddhas. People can be so awful.
What about that Buddha’s head set into the tree. It seems not a stolen one, but rather, one made to order. Say I wish you could have brought that little doggie back to me! You are all looking very well in the photos. It seems especially noticeable with Will. I bet that this trip did him a world of good! Leave it to ‘ini!
