Joel: So Art, you spend a lot of time in Bangkok. My Dad is coming into town and I'm curious where you recommend that I should take him.

Art: Well I think he would enjoy going to the old capital of Ayuttaya. It has a great many very interesting ruins and there's a wonderful guest house to stay at. It's called the PU guest house. And they serve very good meals. It's a very economical place to stay. And if you are staying there you can get a tour by boat around the island and there your parents can see the different Wats and Temples which is very interesting. So I would recommend that. Also if they like to ride the bicycles, taking a bicycle around the old ruins would be a good way to go.

Joel: So everything is close enough that you can ride bikes?

Art: You can ride bikes and if they're not able to ride bikes you can go by a tuk-tuk, a large overgrown golf cart. Or perhaps you could go by these little, what they call "song-tao", little two-seater trucks. And they will stay with you for the whole day and give you a tour for around 300 baht.

Joel: 300 baht! How much is that in US dollars say?

Art: That would be around seven dollars and fifty cents.

Joel: For a whole day tour?

Art: For a whole day tour. Very cheap.

Joel: Amazing!
