Power Couple Travels

The Reclining Buddha at Wat Yai Chai Mongkhol Who wouldn't be templed out if all you see in the past 36 hours were more temples? Yes they are differently named from each other, differently located in the city, but they mostly looked the same! Well, on our last moments in Ayutthaya, we detoured when we saw a sign that says "Floating Market & Elephant Village" - which was really quite a surprise for us because we didn't see that in the must-visit places on the list. The Floating Market was a fail as the market only happens in early hours of the morning and since it was noon time, we didn't see a single boat selling anything. Luckily, there are still shops and stalls along the river. Then we headed to the Elephant Village but since we don't patronize elephant riding, I was happy enough to just see elephants. They are really gentle giants! Then we headed on to the "white temple" as what they refer it to, but otherwise known as Wat Phu Khao T

Wat Chaiwatthanaram on sunrise    On our second day in Ayutthaya, we didn't waste much time as we started hitting the road on our rented scooter before sunrise to catch the beautiful sunrise at the Angkor-Wat look-alike which is situated outside the old walled-city of Ayutthaya which was Wat Chaiwatthanaram. The view was surely spectacular but some parts of the temple were being reconstructed so there were lots of elements that were unphotographable. Some beautiful images that we saw on Google were taken from the other side of the river, but that would mean another 30-minute scooter ride if we have chosen to do so. There was also an unforgettable incident that happened here, I dropped my iPhone and it had a bad landing so it was left with couple of dents. And yes, THAT was an unforgettable major incident for a techie like me. Obviously. LOL.
