Chachoengsao Day Tour

There are many interesting places to visit in and around Chachoengsao the only difficulty is to get to many of them you need your own transport. As I do not have a car or bike I have not seem many of these sights until yesterday when I went touring with some friends in there car.
We stopped first at bat temple. It's not really called that just got the name from all the bats which hang in the trees around the temple. There were thousands of them and they were all fanning themselves to try and keep cool. We also stopped at a couple of other temples and visited a floating market where we took a ride on a small boat for about a hour. Almost the minute we stepped off the boat the rain started and it absolutely poured for well over an hour and we were unable to get back to the car. We sat eating on a floating platform at the market watching all the stall holders continuning to cook in the heavy rain.

A couple of the boats without covers were full of water and sinking by the time we left. As we left only a few minutes down the road and there was no more rain. Where we live did not get a drop all day. It was a good day out and quite an experience to see the heavy rain. I had not seen such an amount of rain since my very first night in Thailand.
