We left really early..at about 8.30am to travel about an hour plus to Kanchaburi to visit Damnoen Saduk, the original floating market and River Kwai..where the Dead Railway linking to Burma is built durinf WWII.
The market is good. Because our driver is affiliated with this boat company, we took a motor powered boat into the market which cost 500baht each. Its very expensive. For the true human paddle boat experience, go directly to the main market and hire the entire boat for only 600baht for not more than 6 person and not more than an hour. Trust me, an hour on the boat is more than enough the experience.
Then it was another 30 plus minutes ride to River Kwai. It was HOOOTTTTTTT!!! The sun was practically burning my skin. Anyways, the railway is just another railway..the exception is the process killed off about 20000 ang mohs and asians (POWs). The price of war and greed. Haven't the human population learned history? Why is it still happening now?
The war museum adjacent to it was more interesting. It houses pictures and relics from WWII itself. Entrance is only 40baht. The cheapest of all the places we visited in our entire trip.
After that it was back to Bangkok. TRAFFFIIICCC JJAAAAMMM yet again.
Then it was my first time seeing TVXQ but from like 100meters away although their van passed right in front of me. It was so tinted plus the curtains that you can't see a thing inside.
Next was dinner then to RCA(Royal City Avenue). Bouncers were so strict that you can't cheat your way into the clubs. They check your passports and i.d. No messing around. So ended sitting at a bar with mum and dad while listening to Michael Jackson because my two little brothers aren't old enough yet. But the clubs were so big and had nice designs.
