After visiting Ayuthya and Bang Pa In, we returned to Bangkok on a cruise ship, enjoying a fine lunch onboard. As always, the scenes of life on the river were fascinating.
A typical river scene, with huge barges carrying rice or lumber being pulled by small tugs.
Janet enjoying the combination of sun and cool river breeze (Bangkok was very hot compared to Chiang Rai).
This gave a whole new meaning to the phrase "low bridge ahead." I had to duck down to avoid having my head torn off (the river was high from late-season rains).

During lunch onboard we met two interesting ladies, one from Penang, Malaysia and the other from London; one took our picture.
