A Temple In A Tree In Thailand

A temple in a tree is actually possible!  Hidden inside a tree is a Buddhist temple, not far out of Bangkok, Wat Bang Kung is found (around 100 km out of Bangkok), but you need to look to see it because the tree roots have grown over the temple! We’ve just been to the Floating Markets nearby […]

Don’t Miss Floating Markets outside Bangkok Thailand

When we first arrived at Bangkok we were informed that the old Floating Markets of Bangkok were …. gone …. finished …. kaput …. over. Oh No!  Having visited them 30 years ago, they were one of the memories that I thought would remain institutional forever. A memory I wanted to share with my son. […]

Exceeding All Expectations – Bangkok Thailand

We step up to the window and before us is the most magical view of Bangkok City at twilight. Colored taxis whirl below us like ants an army of ants, as the city slowly becomes a speckled display of lights. For us, this is a magical moment. Right outside the bedroom area of our Dusit […]

Simply Stunning Sukosol – Bangkok Thailand

If you would like ‘a little bit of simply stunning’, then take a look at this. We lie on our day beds under the canvas of clear blue sky.

It was barely dinner time, but I hadn’t slept much in the […]
