There's nothing like the sound of monks chanting...

This is Gene with our good friend Gaew. I met her at KSU and it's just good fortune that she's here in Bangkok to show us around the temples.

Once again the cool pix of the Buddha are on Gene's camera, but here's just a hallway in this incredibly beautiful temple.

We visited temples to see the Emerald Buddha, the Reclining Buddha and the Golden Buddha and I've never been so awed by craftsmanship in tile design. Gene knows a thing or two about Buddhism and knows the chanting monks are of Sanskrit persuasion as opposed to Thai. This was a very special moment for him as he admires the giant Golden Buddha.
