In Bangkok again. Met up with Kook - a distant cousin of mine on my mother's side. She took me sightseeing to Wat Phra Kaew - an absolutely amazing place and definately one of the must-see temples in Thailand.

It is incredibly hot though... especially with all those white painted walls - so a parasol is a good idea.

Here is a picture I took in the courtyard of the temple. In the background you can see paintings of the Ramayana. In the foreground is Kook herself.
