This weekend, we took a trip with some of the Thai Grad Students that we're working with!
June 26th, 2010 - Saturday
1. Siam Museum - Basically, a cultural and historical museum of Thai stuff!
This is the group of Thai REU students that I will be hanging out with, this summer! :)
This guy (basically) the Thai version of John Muir, was made out of wax!
2. Khao Bin Cave, which was HOT and HUMID! But, awesome, nonetheless!
3. Our Home-Stay Place, which was in traditional Thai architecture!
4. We took a river motorized-boat to Amphawa Floating Market (lots o' yummy munchies!), then to see the fire-flies on the river (not too many, they were mainly in the trees, and lit them up like tiny Christmas lights!)
June 27, 2010 - Sunday
1. Wat Bang-Kung (Buddha in a tree!)
2. These Random Muay Thai Warrior Statues that we saw right next to the Temple...
3. Sanam Chandra Palace
4. Phra Phatom Chedi (Tallest Buddha Monument in the World, but, unfortunately, we were unable to see the Buddha inside of it since it's under remodeling!)
It all looks so beautiful and colorful! Hope you're having a great time!
ReplyDeleteThailand is such an interesting place. The culture over there is just fascinating. Seems like you are having such a good time!
ReplyDeleteThere is not much going on around here except those little earthquakes we had. (and the world cup maybe?)
Your plant is growing by the way!=)
