Hey so we wanted to get away from the usual tourist route so took a bus further west to Sangkulaburi, we were now close to the Burma boarder, this town had a wonderful mixture of cultures, from the Burmes refugees to the western Thias. We took a canoe out on the great lake and genrally relaxed in this very beautiful town. The only thng was that every night we had to watch a video by the tour group who were using our hotel as lodgings, elephant trecking from 10 solid minets whilst eating a green curry, great entertainment.
