Ayutthaya ... ah-hah!!
I wanted to go to Ayutthaya for couple of days for a short break and to write a book (It's been too long!). Dave came along as he had no other plans planned anyway. Joey too (why not?) And Moritz. We took a mini van near Southern Bus Terminal (60 Baht) it takes an hour to get to Ayutthaya. Yay! this is Ayutthaya!
Our room (200 Baht each, it's a dorm room. But fits 4 people, perfect for 4 of us)
Joey is so excited for green (raw) mango with spicy dipping sauce :-)
Thong Yod, Thong Yip, Typical Thai sweets. All the auspicious ceremonies in Thailand must have some of these as symbols of wealth and prosperity (Thong in Thai means "gold") This sweet is originally from Portugal though. It's nothing but egg+water+sugar.
Dave finally getting his hair cut. Business look :-P
Our favorite fruit shake stall. Opposite train station.
Dinner first night at our guest house. This "Hor Mok Salmon" is just sooooo yummy!
Crossing the river using ferry. We rent our bicycles from the shop near train station for 30 baht/dayOn the way back from our cycling tour. Kids swimming in the canal (not drowning) :-P
On the way to night market for our dinner. This kid is a little son of the driver lady. He didn't look like he wanted to be photographed though. And Dave looks like a pervert .. LOL
Joey with frog dish :-) Fried with pepper and garlic
What a scam. In "Ngan Wat" (Temple Fair) usually there's a few places like this where you can win some prizes. This place has big sign written "20 Baht" (very BIG text) if you can shoot the packet on the tin can without hitting the can at all then you win a bottle of whisky. One tray contains 5 shots. We finished one tray (missed all of course) I paid 20 Baht. But you know what, it's 20 Baht per SHOT not per one tray! rahhhh!!! and she said "well, it's written on the sign board" . Yeah right.. 20 baht as long as elephant and "per shot" is as small as ant's poo. Damn you..Got info from Nut that best place to go for night out is "AY" I asked a TukTuk and he said it must be near "The Grand" ok, wherever it is. Take us there! That night there was an infamous porn star name Nong Natt appeared there too just for 10 minutes. Just to do some sexy dance (no taking clothes off, sorry boys!) Not sure how much she got paid.. but it's fairly easy job I must say.Dave's command. Sunderlands on huge screen in the club.
Way back to Bangkok. It was 17 Baht or something. By Train.. All the way to Bangkok!! 17 Baht!
Waiting for the rain to stop.Dave is trying to beat the kid in chess. The Kid wins :-P
We just loveeee Mookata. This is Dave with choices of dipping sauces :-)Plus some "funny" show on the stage :-P It wasn't THAT funny I swear.
