Sukhothai Historical Park

Tuesday, November 19th

Today was a travel day.  The majority of the time was spent on the bus riding from Ayutthaya to Sukhothai.  As entertainment we watched the first 1/2 of the Jodie Foster movie “Anna and the King”.  I saw the Yul Brynner version “The King and I” many years ago.

Arriving in Sukhothai mid afternoon, we grabbed a casual lunch and then broke up into groups of four to take Tuk-tuk’s through Sukhothai Historical Park.  A UNESCO World Heritage site, dating back to the 13th and 14th century, comprised of 193 ruins.

Our hotel was a welcome sight after a long day in the bus.

I’m tired this evening.  The last two days have been emotionally draining.  Ready to get some much-needed sleep.
