Pics for u

Have ya seen the pics from the beginning of this post. Really? You are that far behind?
Better go back two posts and start from the beginning. This post is not the beginning. These pics are of the middle of the day, stopped to look at the elephant show. Wow, these are the best elephants ever. No rides, just talking and laughing with the elephants, check it out!






 So as the sign says you have to pay to take a pic with the boby elephant. But you can kinda cheat, buy some corn as Nickie did and just feed it to him. Watch below as Nickie feeds the elephant and learns how to speak elephant as well.
Yeah she does, cause right at the end she is explaining to the big elephant guy that she doesn't have any left. Also notice Nickie isn't sitting down casually feeding anymore either, kinda moved away a bit. Hahahaha, she is just nervous though, not actually scared.















Pics galore!!

Did you see the last post about the trips to Bang Pa-in?
Well if you haven't then you are falling behind, you need to go back one post and check those out before you look at these.
This set is the ladies in Ayutthaya, same day just another part of the journey.

BTW, wanna see a bigger better pic, click on it!!!!!!!





















Next stop on this day of tours is another temple, not sure if they went in cause next door to the temple is the best elephant show we have seen in Thailand, and this one is free. See ya in the next post with elephants!!

Update, a pic is worth a thousand words

Ok so here's the deal. I was telling this same feeling in an email to Sheila just the other day. It seems to me like I am starting to say the same thing over again. It's kinda like your life. You know you do what you do. And you do it over again, often times the next day. Same same.
What's new in your life that you have to write about today, and tomorrow and the next day, even if you save it up for a week or more, you finally get to the place where it seems to be the same old ****, just a different day. Heard that one before??
Well I have hit that wall folks. Mostly why the posts are few and far between. I could threaten a blog from Lena, get her perspective and all. But getting her to sit down here might be even harder than it is for me to sit here.
So I am going to try something a little different, harder for me but different for you........
Pictures. Yep that will be all. The latest will be of major interest to the clan as these are pics of Deeds, her mom, sister, niece and Lena.
 

Here goes. First real trip they took was the visit to Bang Pa-In, summer palace of the king, Ayutthaya, old captial of Thailand with temple ruins going back 500 years, a temple visit (no Thailand trip worth its salt if you are not pointed in the direction of yet another temple) an elephant show, cruise down the Chao Praya river back to BKK.

These are all the pics to show for now from Bang Pa-In.
Next set is from the ruins of Auytthaya.

See you there.
