18/9 Moo 5 Ladya, Amphur Muang Kanchanaburi, Thailand, 71190, 034-6314439
Have just returned from our weekend tour of Ayuttaya and Kanchanaburi. I have visited Ayuttaya previously so I found it a little hard to revisit the temples I had been to previously (last year). I did learn a little more of the historical side of the provence. Ayuttaya is mistakenly assumed as the historical capital of 'Siam' , This is incorrect. Ayuttaya and Sukhothai were both 2 separate kingdoms. Ayuttaya was considered a wealthy city due to its sea port. Our hotel in Ayuttaya was superb a...

... walk with the tigers, going down to the tiger valley. Most of us paid US100 for pictures taken with tigers head on our laps. The money is for the foundation, the tigers and other animals, monks, the temple and the volunteers. It is worthwhile and for the good cause. Muang Sing Historical Park used to be the temple of ruins. King Jaya Voraman VII of The Great Khmer Empire built it in the 13th century. Muang Sing was abandon in the 14th century after the decline of the ...
Kanchanaburi, Kanchanaburi, Thailand funklicks... soo important or true to you, all of a sudden are not. Life is simple, basic, joys are in their purest form, and rush hour consists of a long tail boat putting along the lake….no there are no traffic lights! Cruzing around on my motorbike and swimming in the lake... I feel alive! <br><br>I do encourage you to visit me, and also if you feel so inclined to update me about the ‘outside world’ ……please do. Music, would be great from time to time. I ...
Sangklaburi, Kanchanaburi, Thailand oniburger<br> My reflections on orientation week are uninteresting at best. Too many hours spent in the city being wasted away in conference rooms in a hotel with no opportunity for exploring the city, making me appreciate having arrived early even more. While the classes in teaching, Thai culture, and language were totally relevant, I wish we could have gotten out more. Luckily we did get to see Wat Phra Kaew though. <br><br> All of the detail of every inch of Wat ...
Kanchanaburi, Kanchanaburi, Thailand paisleyplaid... but in those days there would have been a lot of noise of hammering and ill treatment. The odd thing is that the Japanese used plans that the British had surveyed years earlier. The track was completed on 16 October 1943. In a couple of days time it would be the 66th anniversary. A couple of years after completion it was bombed and never repaired. Some parts of it were later taken up. .<br><br>After seeing all this one would think that we would learn some lessons.<br><br>
Kanchanaburi, Thailand nas.latif... Lauren is going there all the time and did a bunch of classes there over the weekend.<br><br>Ok. That’s about it for the weekend. Thank you for still reading if you have kept up for this long. I believe that this weekend we are going to head to the ancient city of Ayuttaya to do some exploring so check back for pictures sometime on Sunday. We love and miss you all a lot and wish God’s blessings for all of you. Thanks for reading!<br><br>Keeping it gangster, Asian style,<br><br>L & J :-D:-D
Sai Yok, Kanchanaburi, Thailand schipper... Eh, Mala Oo and Cha ou. We call him Super Meng as despite having a club foot he works from morning til night and seems to be invincible! He put us to shame as we sweltered and sweated doing menial jobs he could do 10 times faster! He was very patient with us though and we managed to get it complete by the time we went to the beach. It may sound like an obvious statement but I feel it is one that really does need to be mentioned as it's something both us ...
Sangklaburi, Thailand willndebs... mixed intermittently between chapters. Thirsty reared his head and we just about ran out of gas as I pulled into a gas station on the way back. He drank all he could handle and we were back on our way to Kanchanaburi for a relaxing afternoon exploring the bridge over the River Kwai, the floating restaurants, the war cemetery and the cute rustic town. I contemplate getting my first ...
Kanchanaburi, Thailand madman96... up, but because there was a makeshift buddha altar at the front of the bus, and I hadn't thought about it, as I put my foot in front. For Buddhists, the feet are the dirtiest part of the body, and it's offensive to point your feet at someone, and there I was pointing mine at a buddha altar. Ooops. I apologised profusely, I honestly hadn't thought! I prayed to the buddha that the bus would get there in one piece, or the passengers behind me would have been ...
Kanchanaburi, Thailand kathryn77... in the morming, well fed and then they sleep it off in the afternoon which is when the tourist are allowed to touch them. However they do appear very very doppy. And there's not a guard with a stun gun or again obvious means of restraining them should they get an attack of the frisky kittens. But I dont really have any frame of reference except for experience with my own playful (so called domesticated) pussycats that if the mood ...
