A Visit to Thailand - Day 2 in Bangkok

On our second day in Bangkok, we visited a lot of "Wats", or temples for Buddha. The first was Wat Trimitr, which is the home of the largest Golden Buddhah in the world. We saw a man in a Packer shirt praying to Buddha and wondered if he was hoping for a Packer win on Sunday! The second temple was Wat Pho, home to a huge reclining Buddha, he's 46 meters long! Wat Benchamabopitr, the Marble Temple, was the third stop, where we learned the meaning of the different poses of the Buddha. That evening we went to Siam Billage for a Traditional Thai Dance and dinner.
