Bangkok for 2 days

Bangkok is the largest city we have ever been in (12 - 15 million) and it just extends on and on and on. We could not possibly show the extent with a photo. At the pier where we docked, we were surrounded for 360 degrees by high-rises.
Thailand is a democratic monarchy and again there is a big emphasis on Temples and Palaces. Their kings, past and present, are revered, as is Buddha. The Buddha in this photo is the largest in Thailand.
In this very busy, bustling city there are pictures everywhere of the King.
Now we set sail for Cambodia - this is so exciting!!
