Lopburi

Lopburi, Thailand, 12 May 2008

We caught the train further north to Lopburi where we explored some, yes you guessed it, Buddhist ruins. These one's were more interesting though because there were countless loitering monkeys around them. One of them stole the water bottle from the side of my bag and I ended up chasing him like a lunatic until he dropped it. Claire was also a target for attack on a number of occasions. They were good fun. We went for as meal that evening and almost as soon as we sat down the heavens opened. It was like someone had flicked a switch. Rain, rain, rain. We stayed in the restaurant for about 3 hours. Well, I stayed in the restaurant for about 3 hours. Claire found the courage to venture across the road for a Thai massage after the meal leaving me to sup on a beer. Afterwards we caught a night train to Sukhothai.
