Kanchanaburi - Erawan national park - Hellfire pass - riding the death railway

Just had a confusing dinner. My waiter was called Jenny (yes, I do know the female for waiter) and the tea I ordered came with a cup and something that looked like a tea pot, turned out to be sugar...
Had a busy day. Booked myself a package tour with as first stop Erawan national park where the main attraction is the 7 stage waterfall you can climb and swim in between. As the people who would go to the hell fire pass had to leave earlier than those who went to the elehant camp, we were told that if we would want to climb the whole way we wouldn't be able to go for a swim. I first climbed to the top, 2 kms, first 4 stages easy, then it was a lot harder. I swam at stage 7 and then had still an hour to get back. So I also stoped at stage 4 for another swim as you can slide down a small part of the waterfall, which was fun. The fish nibbeling my feet weren't...

This part of the trip was done in a hury so a bit disapointing. You can folow 4 kms of old tracks but we did only something like 700 m....
Next stop where we would the others was near the Wang Po viaduct where we would take the train. As we still had 45 min, we were able to walk on the tracks ourselves, rather impressive...
Trainride itself was only for half an hour or so, not that long but funny...
Last stop was at the bridge over the river Kwai where it was obvious it's Saturday today, it was over crowded. I walked over it and took some pics while the sun was setting...
And for those who haven't seen the movie "the bridge over the river Kwai' yet just go out and rent it as it gives a good picture of how the prisonors of war were treated...
