Ayyuthaya- Today we enjoyed a tour by bus to Thailand's ancient capital city, where we saw the ruins of the old palace and temple, along with the summer palace of the Thai royal family, which was surprisingly Western in design. We then had another great Thai meal aboard a river boat cruise, which brought us back to Bankok in the late afternoon. We were able to see the Temple of the Dawn from the deck. Tonight we ventured to the night bazaar for a crazy shopping experience second only to the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. We have to wake up at 5am for our flight tomorrow to Vietnam- yikes! our group consists of a family of four from Florida, a honeymoon couple from Mexico, and a IT consultant older lady from California- a pretty funny mix, but all seem very nice!
