Here are a few pics of the old ruins in Sukothai. We rented bikes for two days and visited lots of temples and buddha statues.

To celebrate the completion of our Ph.D.'s, and to avoid looking for jobs, we are traveling this year, looking for the best places to drink tea, eat sweets, smoke shisha, and of course talk politics - and maybe physics too! On this blog, we will post the occasional story and picture of the interesting things we find along the way.
About Us
We met on a blind date in 2005 and currently are on a backpacking adventure around the world. England, Germany, Italy, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and India are some of the places we hope to visit.

I love the photo of the Buddha with the clouds in the background. It's the opposite of how I feel when I bike down College or Bloor streets. But, that's probably the goddamn Ritz compared to India. How ironic that Buddhism originated there. Then again, I suppose that necessity is the mother of invention.
Glad to know that you two are still kickin' it on the happy trials of... well, everywhere. You should visit Laos - Luang Prabang is full of gorgeous temples much like the ones in your pictures from Chiang Mai.
ciao for now
