Hi. On 4/2/09 two girls from little Denmark is on their way east to Vietnam, Australia, Singapore and Malaysia. We are back in Denmark 10/6/09 so we have four months to explore. It couldn't be better (yes more time but we don't have enough money ;) ) We have a month in Vietnam and Singapore + Malaysia and two months in Australia. So here you can follow our little adventure. With tons of pictures I promise :)

This famous bridge is about 4km (3miles) north from downtown Kanchanaburi, crossing the Kwai Yai river. It was brought from Java by the Japanese Army and was assembled at the River Kwai by the prisoners. Bombed several times in 1945, it was rebuilt after the war. The curved spans of the bridge are …

So, after Ayutthaya we got a minibus to Kanchanaburi. The journey wasnt too bad, a bit bumpy and took 3 hours but we didnt get kicked off in the middle of nowhere at stupid o'clock in the morning. We arrived in Kanchanaburi around midday, it was hot as blazes but we didnt have far to go. W…

Kanchanaburi is a wonderful place as you can visit Tiger Temple, The River Kwai Bridge and also a wonderful series of waterfalls and temples nearby. I first took a cycle with some Canadians I met and we ventured forth up north to see a cave where monks lived, there were little kids who guided us …

Een beetje problemen gehad met het vervoer naar Kanchanaburi. Een taxichauffeur bracht ons naar het verkeerde station. Daardoor hadden we de trein van 7.45 uur gemist. De volgende trein zou pas om 13.50 vertrekken. We zijn toen maar met de bus gegaan. Rond 13.00 uur waren we in Kanchanaburi. We ove…

After leaving the Thai-Burma jungle, we headed back toward central Thailand - along the infamous "Death Railway." During World War II, the Japanese used slave labor - mostly prisoners of war - to construct a rail line to support the large Japanese Army in Burma. During its construction, abo…

So extrem wie hier wurden wir noch nie von den Mosquitos angefallen...alleine an meiner rechten Schulter kann ich 10 Stiche zaehlen...und auch das thailaendische Allzweckheilmittel <Tiger Balm> hilft langsam nicht mehr. Doch die Elefantenritte machen alles wett. Mittlerweile sind die uebrige…

We came from Lopburi to Kanchanaburi, a nightmare west-bound journey which seemed fitting, somehow. We got here at 4pm, having left Lopburi at 9.30am. The town is literally just three cemetaries, a museum and a few bars. The Thailand-Burma Railway museum was closing when we got there, but let us in…
