A day of temples and tuk-tuks

---

So yesterday we decided that we wanted to go to take a look at the temples and asked a tuk-tuk driver to take us around... And did he ever... We ended up going to a bunch of different temples, but only saw one huge golden buddha... We went to like 3 different suit shops because these guys get gas cards for bringing tourists to these shops. We saw a 'standing' buddha, which was kinda cool... And then the guys take us to this boat ride place where we go in this boat in the river for a bit... They tell us that we'll see all these different temples for 'free'... Free cost us 1400 baht for the 4 of us, and we saw NOTHING! The ride was fun though... The water was nasty... And we saw a dead dog in the water... That wasn't cool at all.

After we finished the boat ride, we get back to our tuk tuk drivers, and they finished off 8 BIG bottles of Leo beer! These guys weave in and out of traffic to begin with... You shoulda seen em after having some beers... It was quite the experience to say the least. They were racing each other back to Kao Sahn Road... It was pretty good times... Hah...

Lastnight, we had our first taste of the Sam Song buckets... We finished off 4 of em. Let's just say that lastnight got a LITTLE sloppy... We had those drinks and watched the thing that everyone comes to Thailand to see... The PING PONG SHOW! Oh man... I can honestly say that I don't ever expect to see that again... But ya... It was interesting to say the least.

Today, we're gonna try to get to the Golden Palace and Wat Po to see the 'Reclining Buddha'... Hopefully see some Muay Thai fighting tonight, and get some massages and chill pool side...

We bought our train ticket to head to Chang Mai on Monday and we're doing some trek's and such, and then taking a plane from Chang Mai to Phuket. How long we stay in Phuket is something that we'll figure out... We're staying in Chang Mai for about 4 days. Should be good times 😊
