Tu-du. Tu-du-du-du-du-duuuu *fluiten!
... achter de bomen van de jungle aan de overkant. Onze kamer lag op een drijvend vlot in de rivier. We hebben de eerste dag bijna geen toerist gezien bij de eettentjes. Alleen bij de Bridge over the River Kwai hebben we er een paar kunnen spotten.

Persoonlijk vond ik (Carlijn) de brug niet zo heel ...

However when the train rolled in, over an hr early, we were greeted with park bench esque seating... bottoms were not going to be happy with this arrangement! We... Dan, Vicky, Jay and I played cards for a while, until the train chalked up some speed and the Breeze ...
Bye bye Bangkok, hello Kachanaburi
... journey we have passed numerous football pitches, none with full size goals?? (I do feel like a giant here), lots of scarecrows (I've only ever seen Worzel Gummage whom I liken to Bainer) and numerous villages.
I've had the Ipod on for the first time really. Cerys has managed to get some shut eye but I'm to tall and gangly to lie down. There is a Monk sat near us, he started the journey sat upright with his legs crossed even at 60 plus. I'm sure that he was showing off as he's ...
