Loy Nava Dinner Cruise

This is not the best picture but this is one of the traditional Thai dancers on our dinner cruise. We have taken dinner cruises before when we have visited Thailand but they were on a big cruising boat with hundreds of people and loud live bands with dancing--not traditional Thai dancing--but regular dancefloor where you can dance to the live band. Those cruises were fun, but not our "cup of tea". We prefer this dinner cruise, a small intimate setting of only 17 tables on a beautiful teak wood boat with quiet traditional Thai music played on an instrument similar to the sound of a xylophone and quiet traditional Thai dancing for a short period of time. The food was much better than the other cruises we've taken and the owner of the boat came to each table many times throughout the cruise to chat and make sure everything was OK. They had a nice wine list and they pointed out the highlights along the river. It was heavenly!

Here's the link so you can see how cute the boat was! http://www.loynava.com/welcome.html



Here's a picture of Jeff and I enjoying the Loy Nava! And last but not least for sure! We went to the State Tower Building and up to the 64th floor for the most spectacular view of Bangkok! Check out this link!
Sometimes websites look better than real life but this one is right on! These pictures show you how it really looks! We couldn't believe how beautiful it was! In the pictures you will see a beautiful staircase, it leads up to a dome and then to the side there is a stage where they had a wonderful jazz band playing soft jazz music. The end to a most perfect day...
