Bangkok Biz Trip 2017 - Part 2

The 2nd part of the entry will be about my visit to Wat Pho which is about 40 minutes away from Pullman G.

Wat Pho is a sprawling temple complex.  This temple is where the Reclining Buddha is located.  There's an entrance fee of 100 Baht which includes a free bottle of drinking water.  There's also a guided tour option which I strongly recommend if you're visiting Wat Pho for the first time.  

I spent a good 90 minutes or so in Wat Pho just going around, taking photos, admiring the stupas and Buddhist statues.

Bangkok Biz Trip 2017 - Part 1

For the next phase of the project, I had to travel to Bangkok.  This time it was an 8 days trip including another weekend stay.  But at least I'm very familiar with Bangkok so I didn't find it as boring as it was in Ho Chi Minh.

This time my gears are my back-up Fujifilm X-A10 + XF14mm F2.8R WR.

The trip started with the usual shot of the plane I'd be flying in.

Another HCM Biz Trip - June 2017

2 weeks in Ho Chi Minh...  For training..  I left Singapore with a heavy heart as it was my son's school holiday and I had to go away for work instead of spending some time with him.

Departed on a Sunday late afternoon - which means I had to miss karate class again...  

Ready to go!  Déjà vu???
