Adventures in Bangkok day 4

We spent the morning on another longtail boat ride along the river and canals for 2 hours. It is so sweltering here that the breeze on the river is heaven. We visited an orchid farm, which was cool to see the exposed roots.

It's always a bit of a trek to get anywhere-a 1/2 mile walk, usually 2 skytrains and sometimes a ferry, so we are usually hot and sweaty When we get there.

I stayed home sick, but everyone else headed over to Chinatown after lunch to check out New Year celebrations.
