[...] attractions to see then give the floating markets a pass because it isn’t worth missing Wat Arun or the Grand Palace. If you still have your heart set on seeing the floating market then make a day [...]

Beautifully written blog. I love the photos especially the Buddha's in at Wat Arun. Keep posting. A friend of mine just recently visited Thailand and she gave me a Tamarind from there, it tasted so sweet. Love it. Patrices last blog post..See San Antonio-Home of the Alamo

Talen great shots. It also looks impressive from the river. Definitely worth the effort.

Only joking about the cigarette butt because looking at everything else in the top photo, it all looks straight. The Temple must have a definite lean to the right. Martyns last blog post..Thai Ladyboys - Pattaya

I got some good closeups of the ceramics but there were a lot that didn’t turn out well.

I just visited Wat Arun recently. All those bits of ceramic are amazing. I took some close ups that wouldn't win any contests, but from a distance it all pulls together. Catherines last blog post..Bangkok Taxi Drivers: Die, No Problem

Hi Talen,

Wat Arun is staggering to the eye, this is the first time I’ve seen it. Nothing really compares. Glad you and your camera got through the heat okay.

Martyn, you never heard of the leaning prang of Bangkok? Maybe your computer is crooked.

Yeah…I don’t know what happened with that shot and the others were off a little too from this vantage point…I think it was the dock I was standing on was off a fair bit or I was

I thought they had banned smoking at a lot of sites in Bangkok....the reason I say that is because you must have had a cigarette butt under your left shoe because the Temple is leaning way to the right. What an amazing site and the steps shown in one of the smaller photos look a bit too steep for a roasting April day. I will get around to seeing the Bangkok sites one day but it'll have to be on an extended LOS trip, me and big, big cities don't mix. Good to see you returned home safe and I look forward to the many stories I'm sure you've kept in your locker. Martyns last blog post..Thai Ladyboys - Pattaya
