Trip To Thailand - 4/19

4/19, Tue. – Koh Kret

Took non-express River Ferry from Sathon terminal (MAP) upriver to Nonthaburi termial (MAP). Lena fell asleep in the stroller on the 1 hour boat ride. Kaler watched out the windows of the boat for the first half hour then he got tired and fell asleep on Guy for the second half of the ride. We hired a river taxi (longtail) boat to take us the rest of the way to the island of Koh Kret (MAP). We walked around the island for a while and looked at some Buddhist temples, pottery and other craftwork. We learned that the island is mostly visited on the weekends. Therefore there wasn't much open to visit while we were there. Kaler went poop in a toilet at the Buddhist Temple Rama V museum. We took the river taxi back to Nonthaburi. Natty and Guy commented later that the best part of the trip was the ride (sometimes scarey) on the fast taxi boat between Nonthaburi and Ko Kret. On the way back we took the express ferry, which was still slow, but at least it stopped at fewer stations along the river.
