On the road again!

---

We've moved from Chiang Mai - Pai - Mai Hong Son - Pai - Chiang Mai - Sukhothai - Ayuttaya in less than a week! Too much travelling. We never planned to move this fast and we're way ahead of schedule.

Our problem is we get bored easily. We'll spend a day travelling and spend the night. Then we'll explore what the city has to offer that day, spend some time hanging out and decide to move on the next morning. The problem is you get tired fast. Theres something about long bus rides and train rides that tire you out. Not sure why since it's all relaxing, and somewhat comfortable (not really)

Showing up in Ayuttaya, was a litte chaotic. Not because of the city itself but because of the erratic gay guy who owned our guesthouse. Everything seemed like such a chore to him. There was construction outside our room so we wanted a deal. We quickly gave up cause he was nuts

Not too much to say about Ayuttaya. It was beautiful. Like Sukhothai it is an ancient city with ruins dating back as far as the 1100's spread out through the city. We road a bike for about 6 hours of so. We started early cause it gets opressivley hot. By 1 or 2pm it's too hot to do anything until at least 4 30 or 5pm.

Pictures are worth a 1000 words so instead of explaining the ruins hopefully these pictures will help (coming soon)

Once again we got kind of bored. We saw the ruins, the rest of the city isn't much to see so
we moved on onmce again! Promising ourselves we'll have a nice long break when we hiot a town worthy of 4+ days or the next beach town. Whatever comes first.

It was only 15 bhat (45 cents) for the train to Bangkok (Where I am writing this from) We toured around a much newer part of the city this time (Siam Square and Silom) a word of difference from Chinatown. Much nicer and advanced.

We booked a lot of onward travel today. We got our flights from Bangkok to Calcutta, & Bombay back to Bangkok for $500, and a future flight from Krabi to Bangkok for only 155 bhat......that's $4.00!!!! We had to pay a service fee of $15.00. but thats still only $19.00....craziness. I wonder how they stay in business haha. The company is called Air Asia. Cheapy Cheapy!

We wake up at 4 30am to go to Cambodia a 12 hour trip. It's a whole different world there. I'm excited but nervous at the same time.

Ancient Ruins
The complex itself is quite large. Ayuttaya is an interesting mix of ancient city architecture among modern buildings

Pagoda
This thing was huge. Also flooded at the bottom from the recent floods
