We went to Ayuthaya which was the old capital of Thailand.
The first stop was an elephant park.

Thailand: Ayuthaya Elephant Palace (January 23)
Thailand: Pranakorn Kiri & Cha-am (January 22)
Naomi and Eiam were excited because we were going to a beach later.
We first went to Pranakorn Kiri which was the summer home of Rama IV.
Where there were lots of monkeys.
And guys with slingshots to keep them at bay.
Then we went to the beach at Cha-am.
Thailand: Dusit Palace (January 20-21)
Our first night in Thailand, we had Rard-nah; Eiam is the only male in the household (left). The street on which we stayed (right). The neighbor was soon leaving to become a monk and was thus partying late into the night for the first several days we were there.
Taew shows us here many poodles.
Our first visit was to Dusit Palace (palace of Rama V).
We were dropped off and toured by ourselves.
We first went to Vinnmek Palace (left). Then we went to see Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall (right). Pictures were disallowed in both places, so we only have pictures of the exteriors.
In the former, I was required to rent pants (left) and buy a whatever-that-wrap-is-called for the latter (right). Every place has it's own dresscode, but shorts aren't allowed in many places.
As we were waiting to be picked up, Naomi and Amy sat in a tuk-tuk for a photo op. We then went out to eat with the family that night. In the picture are May, Phoon and Air.
