We traveled by bus and then “long boat” to the Floating Market. Here goods are sold out of boats and along the klong. It is a very colorful sight and bargains can be had if one is a good bargainer. We visited a temple with beautiful golden Buddha statues on the way home. It was interesting to watch people offer their food and flowers and to put gold paper on the Buddahs.When we returned from Bangkok the entire crew of 400 plus was in full dress and lined up to greet us. The Regent band played and there were signs saying “Welcome Back!” It was quite a sight. John and I fell asleep on our lounge chairs on the deck looking up at the stars.
HI GAIL AND JOHN,

I HOPE YOU LIKE THE VOYAGER. THE SERVICE SOUNDS AS GOOD AS WHEN WE WERE ON THEIR CRUISES. IN FACT, THERE SEEMS TO BE EXTRA SERVICES LIKE SPRAYING WATER AT THE POOL. HOW NICE IS THAT!!!
