Ordinary Train No. 259 – Thonburi to Kanchanaburi
Nikon FM2 / Fuji Industrial 400
Our Kanchanaburi trip started at Thonburi railway station. The station is actually the old Bangkok Noi station as the old Thonburi station was given to Mahidol University a few years ago. The Ordinary trains 257 and 259 terminate at Nam Tok.
The trip is classed as a “tourist train” which means the SRT charge tourists B100 for any journey on it regardless of the length. It’s not cool but, whatever, it’s still a snip and a nice journey and if you’ve ever visited a national park or a historical monument in Thailand you’ll know it’s not the only way the Thai Government shamefully rinse tourists. I wouldn’t recommend the journey in March.

Our first full day in Kyoto. We stayed literally on the edge of Higashiyama – where the Kamo River intersects Sanjo Dori in a tiny flat about 5 mins from Sanjo Station. This is entirely insignificant fact gave me the idea for the amazingly inventive title. It was very cool area to stay in anyway.
These pitchas were taken on and around Sanjō Ōhashi, one of many bridges that spans the Kamo River. The friendly peoples busting some shapes for me on the banks of the river in the last photo appeared to be practising flash-mobbing.
