After the Ayuthya plan failed, we took this chance to have some fun ourselves beside just shop, shop, shop!!

A common interest was to walk and shoot around Chinatown.. We planned a few spots to visit before we would end up at Khao San Road, a place where Hern Foong wanted to go so much!

It was a fun to ask their permission.. to have them photographed.. And this Hern Foong got to learn from me!!

We were here in Wat Samphanthawongsaram Worawihanra, a place where simple things can appear so beautiful through our lens..

Also, this is the temple where we met a pretty Chinese girl..

We continued our steps.. Here in front of Wat Pathum Khongkha, where I felt our sweats worthwhile with this pork satay!!

Wat Pathum Khongkha, an old temple under reconstruction.. Silent and closed.. until we curiously broke through the barrier..

While we were still pushing and shutting the gate for a nice pose.. The sifu suddenly appeared.. O.O"

With this slight embarrassment, we were invited in by him..

The sifu reminded us don’t forget to make donation...

After Wat Pathum Khongkha, we were still searching the way to the pier.. planning to take boat to King Rama I Statue..

We passed few streets, appreciating the beauty of Chinatown, witnessing how locals carrying their life..

Before we found there was still a long way to reach..

Some may think we are silly.. But this is the kind of silliness you should do when you are still young and energetic..
 
Don’t be envy!! Wakaka..
