Day 2 Bangkok > Ayutthaya > Bangkok

Day 2 Started the day around 9am+ looking for breakfast around nearby area.  A lot to choose from and we couldn't decide! Not sure what this is but it was nice! Crispy on the outside, chewy inside. Topped with sweet chilli sauce, reminds me of png kueh without fillings. Wanton Mee from a stall along the roadside.  So nice that we ordered another bowl to fill our stomach. After breakfast, time to head for Ayutthaya .

The journey varies from 1 hr 30 mins to 2 hr 30mins and we factored in: 1. Rent a bicycle to tour around or hire a tuk tuk for short trips within Ayuthaya. 2. Recommended to head for the station for the train back to Bangkok by 3pm. S

Still can't figure out how we were able to make it passed the crowd to exit the train. Walking to  Citin Pratunam  can be tricky. If not for another group of travelers heading the same direction, we were bound to have problems getting to the hotel. The route to the hotel was via a train path which has a small exit and cannot be seen from far. We didn't had a heavy lu
