When I went to Thailand i saw the reclining Buddha statue in Bangkok at Wat Pho. I would love to revisit SE Asia – so much more to see! Thank you for bringing back these memories for me 🙂

I really liked looking at your photos, though! I would really like to see the reclining Buddha in Myanmar!

Hi Ursula. I don’t think I have ever seen one that I didn’t like, and I can never walk by without stopping.

I loved the Bamboo Buddha, too. He is just so unique, and the attention to detail is amazing.

Hi Lyn! A Buddha crawl in Asia would be fun.

Hi Paula. I have brought back small Buddha statues without an issue. However, Buddha t-shirts I would not even attempt. Besides the fact that do not want to wear Buddha on my body! The last time I drove into BKK there was a big billboard warning people against Buddha tattoos.

Hi Corinne. You’re right. I can never walk by one without a few clicks of the camera 🙂

Hi Michele. I think I remember that one in Penang, and it was lovely!
