Day 3 - Bankok (to Kanchaburi)

We took a tour with Good Times tours. We were picked up at the guesthouse at 6am. Our guide was named Fanta and the kids liked him a lot! We arrived at Erawan Waterfall at 9am. There are 7 levels to the waterfall but we only made it to the 4th. The kids were a little nervous about swimming with the fish at level 2 but we all had a great time sliding down rocks on level 4. The fish only sucked on you when you stayed still! We ate a Thai lunch by the waterfall.

We then we to an elephant camp. We got to ride elephants for about 30 minutes. Emme and Luke actually got to sit on its neck. It even walked through the river while we were on it.

Next, we went on bamboo rafts down the River Kwai. During most of our journey, we actually jumped in the river and swam close to the raft.

We then took the Death Railway for about 30 minutes. We were then taken by van to the Bridge over River Kwai. After that, we called it a day and headed back to Bangkok. (We ordered McDonalds for dinner.)
