Bangkok, Thailand...second time


Making offerings at a Buddhist Temple.  Notice the scarf covering my shoulders. It is considered very disrespectful for women to show their shoulders and knees at Temple.  Also, women are forbidden to touch any monks, though men are allowed


More offerings to a large Buddha statue, asking for blessings of  safe travels
A monk...the are tons of Chinese tourists outside this window snapping pictures of him. This is his pose
The monk and Buddha
The pool table and restaurant at the D & D Hotel.  This is our second stay at this place...I believe the last picture here included some Irish lads who got a bit rowdy by the end of the night
The pool at our hotel
The view of Bangkok from the pool
Khao San Road, where our hotel was located.  This place is crazy...people trying to sell you things every second
Another temple 

Thai's giving their offerings
This is a place to give offerings that was actually outside a 7-11.  Oddly enough there are 7-11's all over Thailand.  These structures are in many houses and outside businesses.  Notice the offerings of food and drink under it

Koh Phi Phi Don
