Damnoen Floating Market is over 1H away from Bangkok, and an interesting tourist attraction. You get a private boat that takes you around the market, and pick things up as you float/motor along.

interesting motors, they use car engines, this one even with a turbo

it was hard to pick between the colors

I got suckered into getting that cute litte thing :)

poor little thing looked terrified

Had a quick stop at another temple:

After the market, my package included some shows:

crocodile show :)

I would totally not do that :)

There was a fun garden :)

Here is the train coming by:

After that, a long drive back to Bangkok:
