Our driver was a bit perplexed. Hilarious in the fact that it was because of Egypt that we were here in Bangkok. Wat Po was very impressive. The courtyard is the actual attraction with 12ft tall statues guarding the entrances, multi-colored temples, and over 30 golden plated buddhas displayed in cases. Wat Po is 200 years old.
Next stop is a nearby canal side shopping market.
Hans was anxious to visit the floral market in order to add to his ongoing orchid collection in his Paris greenhouse. I buy some dried Thai chilies. We meet Kirby and Hans on the other side. Hans bought a new orchid breed he doesn't currently own. The 5 of us then hit a river boat on the Chang Praya River to lunch at McDonalds.
