Getting up and looking down on the pool (with zoom) from the 15 floor...
Luxury... in this case means salt instead of chlorine.
(Taken through the window...)
So many details...
With cages with birdies inside...
Wow! Thw more the merrier?!
Found the figurine?!
Some Temple we came across - maybe Wat Khlong Toey Nok (วัดคลองเตยนอก)?!
Fueling up before getting down to it...
On a peninsula called Khung Bang Kachao at the entrance of Sri Nakhon Khuan Khan Park.
Lush and green...
... mystical...
... tropical.
Waterpalmtrees?! Never seen anything like it...
Plumeria (common name Frangipani) - maybe my favourite flower...
Love how detailed the little temples are set up. With lots of love...
Purrrfect! :D
Strolled along this path and met...
... him - who offered me some fresh coconuts.
"No risk - no fun" ?!
Apparently lots of people in Thailand die after being hit by a coconut
- most likely they are as nuts as I trying to catch a good picture...
Here they are - fresh from the tree...
So earnest.
This is his buddy who is collecting the nuts...
This guy who got these coconuts with so much effort down from the palm tree offered them to us for free. I do not know enough about Thailand's culture to know why - or how one is supposed to react. But basically being in the middle of busy Bangkok I was astonished. I thought Thailand was overloaded with Tourists leaving people with bad habits as overcharging and such - as I experienced on Bali. Maybe this guy is the one exception - but I was truly moved. (We made it a trade off - exchanging the nuts for two cold tiger beers for him and his pal...)
Concrete paths which are all over the peninsula.
This pink rocks! <3
Back at the jetty where we rented the bikes.
It is about 2 EUR for a bike for a day... Wow!
The temple from before seen from the river Chao Phraya.
People waiting at the pier for their water taxi.
Later that night - or let's say - early morning on the next day ...
