“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

“Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind.” – Seneca

Photos: Ayutthaya

Various Temples around the old capital, Ayutthaya


Elaborate murals inside crypt of one of the temples. We had to climb down a couple of steep staircases and endure the awful stench of bat pee, to see these!



A bronze statue dating back to about 1000 yrs ago! It was one of our favorites! 


Monks on tour!


So many beheaded statues! A result of the war with the Burmese.

Buddha head in banyan tree! How did it get there? There are several theories...
