No rest for the wicked! Right after our time with the ele's we set off to check out a local waterfall, and then the Death Railway.
 |
| Mini cave next to the waterfall |
 |
| Chad and Kate are just sorting out some issues. |
 |
| With flash |
 |
| Water drips eating away at the rock |
 |
| Back on the songtel |
 |
| Standing on the back is the best part! |
 |
| Still not sure what these are exactly and haven't yet brought myself to buy any. |
 |
| Walking along the tracks. We did not have to do any train dodging, although Brandon kept a good eye out for places to jump to should one happen to come along. We read the trains stop at 4pm and the information was fortunately correct! |
 |
| Found a little cave shrine on an offshoot of the railway |
 |
| A common religious practice in Thailand is, after praying, to shake a cylindrical can of sticks, each with a number on them. The first stick that falls out onto the floor will have your fortune. You read the number on your stick, and then look at a wall of fortunes that each have a numerical association. I got the number 5 and here's my apparent fortune. |
 |
| End of the cave. Don't breathe in too deeply here! |
 |
| Chugga chugga chugga chugga w00t w00t! |
 |
| Putting a little life back in the Death Railway. |
 |
| I particularly liked this exhibit. |
 |
| Kate obviously can't handle the Lisa sandwich. |
 |
| Bridge over the river Kwai -- location of a book and a movie by the same title. |
 |
| We all look ready for the rainbow train! |
 |
| This fabulous ol' girl took us across the bridge and back for a mere 20 baht. |
 |
| Lisa couldn't seem to get the timing of opening her eyes for pictures that entire weekend. |
 |
| Distracted by hair bow. |
 |
| Getting the songtel back to the bus station |
 |
| I had fun doodling on the DS (borrowed from our housie) on the long bus ride back home. Can you guess who I drew? |
 |
| I must have been hungry... |
