Laa Kawn, Ayuthaya!

I'll be leaving Ayuthaya by train tomorrow night, heading 12 hours north to Chiang Mai. I may have alluded to the friendliness of Thai people, but in the mere 2.5 days that I've been in Ayuthaya I have been offered 2 jobs, been taken to see the sunset at a famous wat by a woman who I suspect might be the wealthiest person on the island, shared a watermelon with her hilarious twin daughters, been given 30 oranges, and played a speaking role in a Thai student film. Oh, and I ran into a baby elephant at a night market. Literally. He won.
