Day 5 in Bangkok

Our last day in Thailand, we got up early that morning to have some team time to close out the trip. We then headed out for our last adventures before catching our flight  to the U.S. at 10:00 that night! First we drove a couple hours outside of Bangkok to the world famous “Floating Market.” The Floating Market takes place in a canal called Damnoen Saduak. We loaded into motor canoes of 8 with our coconut drinks in hand. Our guide took us through the canal with palm trees hanging overhead, passing small houses on stilts, we enjoyed our ride with the warm Thai sun beating down on us one last day.  Finally we arrived to the markets where sellers of fruit, vegetables and souvenirs lined the walls of the canal  on every corner, around every turn. Anytime we saw something we wanted to buy from a vendor, we’d stop our boat, and buy it right there on the river! The team was glad to get some last minute shopping in and get a chance to see such an awesome world-famous attraction. After visiting the Floating Market, we hurried to a place nearby where the next exciting opportunity awaited our team! They once again had the chance to ride elephants, and they even got to ride bareback if they wanted! After a tour through the jungle on the back of an elephant the trip was officially coming to an end. We then headed to the airport for our flight to Seoul Korea, and then onto the U.S.. Everyone was very sad to leave, but excited to get back home to see family & friends.
