Took me twenty times or MORE to practice the name of this city.
Finally, after many embarrassing moments at tour agencies I got it. kinda.
We took an 11 hour bus from Chiang Mai to Bangkok.
The Bangkok Bus station was PACKED. Kevin and I had to bump through large lines and crowd of people with both our large backpacks on and our small. Finally we landed tickets at 830AM to get to Kanchanaburi. Once we settled in to our raft room on the river we checked the news and read terrible things about the protesters in Bangkok.
Many people died and even more injured.
I'm SO glad we didn't stay in Bangkok. It was a close call, but we are 3 hours away.
Kanchanaburi is the province that has the Erawan National Park and we hope to made it to the 7 tiered waterfalls soon. The heat has got us very lethargic and it will be a while before we muster the energy to get out.
Maybe after the antibiotics are all taken?
