Route Map 
Bangkok, Thailand »
October 22, 2010
Next day and more exciting things. Today was a temple day. Not a big one, but I took a few good photos there. It wa exciting! I was lucky that they had some celebrations there and many monks and had been visiting the temple. I guess the pictures will speak for themselves. Enjoy.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → The temple I am talking about. At first looks just normal.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → I have noticed that there is more than usual traffic there - an invitation to explore.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → The monks coming in. Something's definitely going on.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → And the monks coming out. I asked what's the special event but I forgot what it was. Would it really make a difference? I guess not. I just enjoyed the views.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → Zoominng in on the crowd in orange robes...
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → The monks sat there for a while and chatted waiting for the rest to come out.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → Then they left.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → There were some older and younger monks mingling. I was lucky to capture what seemed like three generation in one picture. What's also interesting is that the robes can have quite different colors, ranging from washed out almost brown to bright orange. I wonder if there is any meaning to it.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → Another look at the temple - someone stays in.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → These stone sculptures just outside the tmeple look real very real and capture the mood of what's going on inside.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → On the way back to my hotel I went to yet another temple. I love this photo.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → The people inside...
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → ...and the monks.
Photo: Bangkok, Thailand → People sit here on carpets around the area where the ceremonies take place.
My life has always been about freedom and I shall continue to walk this path.
Safe travels ! ........... Stan
