In the morning the raft house took us back to our starting point in Kanchanaburi where we returned briefly to the Apple Guest House to pick up our bags before catching a very pimped up bus to Ayutthaya (with many speakers, flashing lights and big sub woofers), where we arrived at the Sherwood Guest House for lunch, have a quick shower and then a swim in their pool, while the rest of the group went off to visit another 3 temples. By this time, Christina and I just wanted to stay at the guest house for a swim as we could face another 3 temples.

Later in the evening we got another pimped up bus to the station where we caught a night train to Chiang Mai. The train was a soft sleeper and was much better than the Chinese ones. They even came around took your order for dinner and breakfast in your cabin and then delivered it down to you. It was great. We got paired up with Julie and Damien and ended up having a few drinks on board and then having a bit of a laugh with them, it certainly makes the 16 hour journey go a lot quicker and more enjoyable.
