It was a very hot day. It felt very hot, but ironically it rained in the morning. In the morning, we first went to a temple. Then we went to the palace where the king and queen avoid the summer heat. After having Cantonese food, we went to a umbrella factory and our final destination today was the train station. After we left the Xia Palace, we as in our whole 9E group, went to decorate the paper umbrella. The paper umbrella was originally not for blocking the rain, but the umbrella could be used for blocking the sun. The umbrella that they prepared, the one we used, was very small. It was about ten times smaller than the original umbrella. The people at the umbrella factory had already prepared all the supplies that we needed. They prepared the small umbrellas, paint, and the paint brushes. At first, there was a teacher beside us mixing the paint, and then we started to paint the mini umbrella. We painted our umbrella for about an hour and later we finished up the work. Then we packed up to leave for the train station. When we left for the train station we went on to the train and felt the cool conditioned air. Later Sam and I went to buy something to eat and found out that the things sold in the station were very expensive.

The state railway of Thailand is like a moving hotel less than 3 stars on the railway, just like its name. The activities that we could do on the train were few, so it was hard for me to get used to it. We had to keep our voices low almost all the time, so we tried not to bother other people staying next to us on the train. There was also one really tricky part of the tables. The tables were all hidden under our seats and not easy to notice. The worst part was that our dinner had no meat in. However, there was one interesting thing on this train---sleeping on the train. That was the only fun part I could tell. Also, you got to watch out because there was no plug at all for our cell phones or computers to charge. I just hope that I could get it through while staying on the train for 13 hours, but people say that the train is slow and seldom get to the destination on time. By the way, the toilet smelled bad, so I tried not to think about the word “shower”.

我今天印象最深刻的地方就是佛寺，雖然有很多人沒進去但我真的為他們感到非常的遺憾。泰國人非常尊敬他們的佛寺所以進去的服裝有嚴格的規定，連鞋子都必須要脫才能進去。一開始，導遊就帶我們到了一間佛堂內禱告，禱告完還有佛僧幫我們波聖水和在右手上綁上一條平安線。而且我還了解到每一間佛寺都有自己代表的生肖，泰國人會按照自己出生是星期幾而敬拜不同的佛像，這點是我覺得很特別的。他們佛寺的建築才大致上分成木頭、金箔、和玻璃。這次參觀佛寺真的很值得，我幫我的家庭祈福了很多次還了解到許多佛教特別的規範。

今天的夏宮是我最難忘的地方，當我們下車後，眼前的花園馬上變成眾人的焦點。拿起相機的我，手不停地按下快門，抓取最動人的畫面。不管是腳旁的鳳仙花,還是高掛的人造瀑布，都令人流連忘返，走道後院可以看到給國王度假用的小皇宮，金碧輝煌的雕刻還有威風凜凜的雕像都讓我驚嘆不已。原本想要探訪皇宮的我們卻被導遊禁止了，後來才知道為了保持皇宮的整潔，當地人是不會讓遊客進入的。雖然不能親自體驗國王的住處，可是光是看外表就大概可以想像到其內部的輝煌。走完這次的皇室花園，讓我對泰國的印象更有所提升。
