Old Capital Ayutthaya


So back in the day, I don't care when, the inland city of Ayutthaya was the capital of Thailand so there are dozens of old temples in this city.

Me and my scootin buddies, Jay and Helmut, headed the 90KM North of Bangkok to enjoy some lunch and check out a temple. Although the GPS system got us lost a few times we made the journey in 2.5 hours. It was nice to get out of the city and get the bike moving up to 102KMH=63MPH which doesn't sound fast, but on a little scooter; it sure feels fast.

So I found it odd that they allow people to just climb all over the stone temple we saw and you could bring food in. I saw some litter on the temple, no respect, probably from some Western jackass. I drank a fresh coconut (crap), saw these elephant rides, and told some super hot American girl that she was.
