Route with pics
Picasa Album
So after spending 1 more day in Ayuthaya we headed off to the train station to catch the noon train to Bkk. For some reason the return to the station ferry in ayuthaya is free? Or we just missed the pay-lady...anycase, joepie, free boatride! (60sec only though)
When we then bought our train tickets, we realised there is a flat-fare for the bikes...so far we were in the believe that we payed a %fee based on the distance we travelled...not. It's 90B/bike, always (about 2 euro). Sounds a bit hefty considering our tickets were only 15B/person! Less than 0,5euro for 2h train riding...absurd...enough compensation for the 90B/bike ;-)
Train ride was uneventfully nice, windows down, doorway sitting staring & enjoying the fan come round. Then we had to hit the bangkok roads again! Busy, noisy, smelly & really hot. This time we could really feel the polution in the air while trying to gasp for oxygen in the air. A ride to the Probike shop quickly ended our hopefull "dream" of selling them our bikes, but tomorrow we meet a dutch guy that does biketours in bkk & would like to see them...fingers crossed...Ended the day by meeting another belgian guy who just arrived in bkk from australia, sharing a noodlesoup & beers, 7-11 snack & some travel stories. Only action remaining for today is yet another shower before going to bed.
