A Wild Weekend in Bangkok

Day 2&3- Aug 8th and 9th

Our second day in Thailand was absolutely amazing. We started the day with visiting the coconut farm where we saw how to make coconut oil and sugar. Other products, such as soap, shampoo, and bags were made of coconut shell.
Happiness with every sip of coconut water!


Our next adventure was the elephant rides and the floating market. The floating market has a variety of locally produced products that includes food and crafted items.




No body told me it's Pork Blood until I devoured it 





After lunch, we visited the zoo to see the elephants and alligator show. Most of us got hugged by adorable elephants. See the pictures below!

On Sunday Aug 9th, We visited the Grand palace and had the chance to learn about the history and government of Thailand. We also visited Ananta Samakom Throne Hall. Pictures were not allowed in most of the tourist attraction areas.
