A Visit to Thailand - Day 1 in Bangkok

In September, we flew to Los Angeles for a visit with Kristen and my sister Joanne. From there, we hopped on a plane to Thailand! It was a very long 14 hour flight to Taipei, where we spent our first night in Asia. The following morning we flew Hong Kong, and then on to Bangkok, landing there about 10 in the morning. Our first excursion was a cruise on the Chao Praya River. We stopped at The Royal Barge Museum and Wat Arun - Temple of the Dawn. What a different culture!
