G'day!
We woke up early this morning to catch a bus to Kanchanaburi, near Kwai. It was nice and air conditioned but were the only farangs (foreigners) so we just put our ipods on and chilled out. We were glad to be escaping Bangkok and finally 'travelling about'. On the way to Kanchanaburi we saw lots of things, mainly sprit house shops, Tesco lotus and Makro but we also saw a moped with two Thai young guys on collide with a moped -trailor holding two Thai men and a very young boy, about 2 years old. Everyone was thrown off their mode of transport and luckily our driver was not going ridiculously fast so we were able to stop in time, because the young boy was lying directly in our path on the road! So scary, it shook us all up on the bus! Miraculously they all looked OK though apart from some cuts and bruises!
We arrived in Kanchanaburi OK and picked the C&C guest house to stay, it's right near the water and has very cute, basic rooms that are costing us 1 pound fifty each per night. We have just had some food (Rice veg and chicken for 30p) and are going to head back to our rooms so we can get up early and go hire a moped to explore on! Can't wait! I will also be throwing away some of the crap I have bought with me because my bag is SOOOO heavy!
Hope you are all OK and enjoying the English weather
