Hi all, just got back to Bangkok from Ayutthaya, the old capital. We were there 3 days, with Yai, our host,a lovely lady. See Gavin's blog for all the names and details.
We interviewed some farmers and one lady farmer in particular, who did things alone, an awesome example of energy and commitment, to farming more naturally.
In a short time, we had some great experiences, ...saw amazing Wats or temples, and Buddhas, a monk blessed us and gave us all bracelets, we were very careful not to touch him, as a sign of respect.
We saw a sunset over a temple ruins and of course I took lots of photos.
This morning , we gave flowers and food to the 4 monks at a temple, to celebrate the full moon. It was very moving. We have had dinner at the busy markets by the river and had lunch at a vege cafe and were recommended some lovely peanut food by David from Michigan. Saw and tasted rambutans for the first time.
Now we are up 5am to fly to Vietnam, I am looking forward to it but a little sad to leave behind such lovely people we have met so far, I will miss Thailand and its beautiful, gentle people.
Thankyou everyone, Sa wa deeka, kob khun ka love karen
