The Chao Phraya at Wat Rakhang. Photo: Vera TikhonovaJan 12, Bangkok, Thailand Bangkok Orange flag boat all the way up the river and back, 18 baht a ride. Got off at Wat Rakhang because the bells sounded good. Shared a long-tail through the klongs with a Dutch couple, houses on stilts, kids waving, a monitor lizard the size of a dog. Lumpini Park at dusk, everybody exercising at once. Mango sticky rice for dinner. Tomorrow, Ayutthaya, the 8 am train.
