Bangkok: Safari and Marine World

Safari World. (More here)
baby zebras!
Camels wandering down the road (just like in Yellowstone!)
Herd of rhinos.
We didn't get any more good pictures because of the rain and having the windows up in the carnivore section.
Feeding the giraffes! The highlight of the entire trip, for all of us.
You can feed the baby tigers, but we got there at nap time.
Two of the dozens of macaws
The River Cruise ride was pretty bad.
Orangutan boxing show. Also pretty bad.
Sea Lion show
Dalton was more interested in the Indian man next to us.
The elephants tight-rope walked (this one even turned around on the ropes and went back), painted, played games, and walked over audience volunteers.
Feeding the birds.
This was our tour guide.

Bangkok: Siam Ocean World Aquarium

Siam Ocean World in the basement of Siam Paragon shopping center. Hopefully the life jacket stays on long enough for us to save him from the sharks.
100 baht for raw shrimp.
Feeding the fish on our glass-bottom boat tour.
Dalton is unsure of the sea otter.
Dalton's favorite part of the aquarium.
Fish spa!
These are blurry, but I tried to get the aquarium in the background.
Maggie and the "baby hammerhead fish" as she calls it.
Tuk-tuk!

Bangkok: Ayutthaya Tour and River Cruise

At the Summer Palace. (As always, read more details on my blog)
My kids are getting so good at posing. As long as they don't have to actually look at the camera.
Dalton immediately marched over and copied Daddy's pose.
"It's Maggie-sized!"
Ayutthaya ruins
Buddha in a gold robe. Maggie says, "Mommy, I don't think so I like any Buddhas." She got tired of looking at statues.
Will sway back and forth for food. Sadly no picture of the hula-hooping elephants.
River Cruise back to Bangkok.
Watch your head. Seriously. That waiter had to duck.
