Wat Arun

I feel like I have seen quite a bit of Bangkok, but I had yet to go to Wat Arun so I decided yesterday that would be on the agenda. It was fun. To get to there I had to take a taxi the subway to the sky train and then I had to switch trains and go to the pier. From the pier I had to take a boat to the stop and from there I had to take a boat across the river. It was quite the adventure, but went really smoothly actually. It was good to get out and wander a bit.

Wat Arun is really close to the Grand Palace and Wat Pho. Its right on the river. Its really pretty, but I will let the pictures show that. Wat Arun is a really tall structure and you can climb up to the top. To climb to the top you climb these really steep stairs. People were so nervous on these things. It was pretty funny to watch. After that I headed back home. I discovered that their popsicles for the most part are delicious so I had 3 yesterday. I kind of have one of those addictive personalities maybe.

 This was the 2nd  Christian Church in Thailand

 Big Buddha's aren't real common in Thailand.



 Here is somebody real nervous on the stairs.
