Kanchanaburi - zadnji dan

V Kanchanaburiju smo se 3 Slovenke razsle... Dunja je sla na jug, Marusa na sever, jaz pa ostjam v K., ker si moram vsaj se Erawan slapove pogledat, pa most na reki Kwai.....

Kanchanaburi 3 sloveninan girls needed to say goodbye, one has gone on the South, the other one on the North and I stayed in Kanchanaburi. At least I need to see Erawan waterfalls and bridge over river Kwai....

Na vrtu hostla Jolly Frog so imeli enkraten vrt, kjer si lahko spoznal ogromno popotnikov... ucili so me ognjenega showa s tenis zogicami.... mi kar uspeva tko da, ko pridem domov... pripravite se na ognjeni show. Zvecer smo se odpravili na vecerjo in KARAOKE..... Tajci so nori na karaoke, na vsakem vogalu pojejo :D

On the beautful garden of hostel Jolly Frog you could meet a lot of trevelers... some of them were teaching me how to make fire show (with tenis balls on the wire).... I was quiet good for the first time so when I get home, be redy for fire show ;) In the evening we went to have some dinner and of course on the KARAOKE..... Thai peple are crazy after karaoke.

Naslednji dan je sesterica odsla na ogled slapov .... bi rekla da najlepsi plac, kar sem jih videla do sedaj. Na vrhu smo lahko tudi plavali pod slapovi v sinje modri vodi.
Next day six of us went to se the Erawan waterfalls.... the most beautiful place that I have seen until now. At the top we could also swim under waterfalls in blue natural water.

Zvecer nam je Robin priredil mini ognjeni show s palicami.
In the evening Robin made a little fire show with sticks.

Pot se je nadaljevala v Ayutthayo - nekoc glavno mesto Siam-a (danasnje Tajske).... I went to Ayutthaya next - one of the capital cities of ex Siam....

Kanchanaburi - Sungkhaburi

Sedaj potujem sama... Prek neta sem se dogovorila z Maruso in Dunjo, da se dobimo v mestu Kanchanaburi. Punci sta iz Slovenije in potujeta po Tajski, srecali sta se v Bangkoku. In ze se je zacelo.... 'go with the flow'... Se pred srecanjem sta punci spoznali localnega turisticnega vodica - Anda, ki nas je z motorji odpeljal v bliznji Tiger Tepel, kjer smo se stiskali in igrali s tigri... Fantasticno.

From now on I am travelling on my own. Bangkok was killing me (I realy got borred there).
On internet I arranged to meet with Marusa and Dunja in Kanchanaburi - where I was planing to go next. Both girls are from Slovenia and are travelling around Thyland at the moment. They met in Bangkok. And here we go 'go with the flow'.... they already met one local turist guide - Anda. We rented motorbikes and he took us to the Tiger Temple to squeeze and play with tigers. Fantastic.

Buffet v localni restavraciji, kjer smo lahko pojedli karkoli in kolikor smo zeleli za 1.5 eura/osebo.

Dinner in local buffet for 1.5 eur/person and you can eat whatever and as much as you want to.

Praznovanje rojstnega dne lastnice bliznjega lokala PhiPhi in spoznavanje drugih popotnikov.

Birthday party of Thai bar manager Phi Phi and meeting other travellers.

Po priporocilu Ande smo sedle na lokalni avtobus in po 6-ih urah voznje prispele v Sangkhaburi .... vasico ob meji z Burmo. Vasica je situirana poleg velikega jezera... nas hostel je imel cudovit razgled nad jezerom. V enem delu vasi zivi etnicna skupina Mon. Z barcico smo si ogledali staro potopljeno vasico Monov in za tem njihovo novo vasico, v katero smo vstopili preko najdaljsega lesenega mostu na Tajskem.

By recomendation of Anda we went to visit Sangkhaburi village that was 6 hours far from Kanchanaburi near the board with Burma and close to a big lake... our Guesthouse had a view over that lake. In one part of the village (across the lake) lives ethnic group Mon. We saw old fluded Mon's village and crosed the longest wooden bridge in Thyland to visit new village of Mons. Countryside is marvelous here.

Zvecer je vasica dokaj zaspana... dolgocasje smo ubile s fotografiranjem s klobucki, ki jih nosijo Moni.

Cos village is rather sleepy we did know what to do in the evening... we amused ourselves by taking photos with hats that are tipical for Mons.

nazaj v Bangkok

Ker sta Maja in Simon letela nazaj domov, smo dan pred odhodom obiskali se nekaj zanimivosti Bangkoka. Farma kac razstavlja najbolj znamenite kace Tajske, po ogledu le te in po mini showu smo imeli priloznost se fotkat z lacno kaco okoli vratu... k sreci nismo bili njeno kosilo.

Because Maja & Simon needed to fly back home we visited some more sights of Bangkok the day before they left. We visited Snake farm that exhibits snakes of Thayland and after mini show we had a chance to take some photos with hungry snake around our neck :) Luckily we were not her favourite choice :)

In Tanja nebi bila Tanja, ce bi samo hodila po mestu in to je to. Neki sm tela uspict... pogledam okoli sebe in me sine ideja, da se spravimo na najblizji stolp. Ko smo vstopili se je izkazalo, da je to 2. najvecji stolp v Bangkoku v katerem je hotel s prestizno restavracijo na vrhu. Na zalost je za obisk restavracije dress-code bil obvezen. Prijazno osebje je Simonu posodilo cevlje in hlace in nas poslalo na 59 nadstropje, kar je 196m visine. Imeli smo fantasticen nocni razgled nad mestom s 17 mio prebivalstva. QL ne?

It just wouldn't be me if I would just walk around the city. I wanted to do something crazy.... I looked around and sudenly got un idea to go on the top of one closer tower. After entering the building we found out that this is a hotel with a restaurant at the top. Very kind staff they borrowed the shoes and trousers for Simon cos dress code was obligatory. They sent us on the 59th flor, which was 196m high and we had a marvelous noght view over the Bangkok that has 17 mio citizens. We visited the second highest tower in BKK.

Otocka Ko Samui in Ko Tao

Najprej, hvala za vse komentarje na blogu in maile, vi kar pisite ... vse preberem, sam ni veliko casa za odgovore. First thank you for all the comments on the blog and e-mails, continue writing... I read it all, just don't have that much time to reply... you understand me :)

Iz severa letimo na jug... najprej na otocek Ko Samui. Zelo turisticen otok z veliko trgovinicami, stojnicami, clubi, masaznimi saloni...

Ker nam otocek ni bil najbolj vsec (tudi morje ni bilo ravno cisto), smo odpluli na mini otocek Koh Tao - poznan kot otok zelv (ceprav jih ni - bile nekoc). Sem vecinoma zahajajo potapljaci - veliko je centrov za potapljanje. Sli smo na celodnevno snorklanje okoli otocka in v pisanem podvodnem svetu zivali smo zaplavali tudi med morske pse... in to brez kletk, da ne bo pomote.

We flew from the north to the south...first on the ireland named Ko Samui. Very turistical ireland with many shops, markets, clubs, massage saloons...

We didn't like it very much (also the sea wasn't very clean) and decided to go on mini ireland Koh Tao - known as an ireland of turtles althougt there aren't any (used to be). The ireland is good spot for divers too - there are many diving centers. We decided only to go snorkeling around the ireland and among sea colorful animals we had chance to swim with sharks too... and without cages.

Ko Tao nam je bil resnicno vsec se posebej, ker smo bungalov dobili skoraj na plazi (no 5m stran pa res) in 5m od restavracije.... kaj ces bolsga! Plaza in morje sta bila fantasticna.

We realy liked Ko Tao especially because we got bungalow almost on the beach (actually 5m from it) and 5m from the restaurant... what could be better! And the beach and the water sea was really incredible.

Seveda smo se morali slikati s pridno natakarico War-Wa iz Burme in odlicno sefico kuhinje Toy, ustregli sta vsem zeljam nasih lacnih zelodckov.
Of course we had to make foto with great War-Wa - waitress from Burma & Toy excelent chief cook, they satisfied our hunger every time.

Na otockih 'lady boysi' zvecer uprizarjajo show-e...., ki so lahko zelo zanimivi in zabavni. Z Majo sva bili navduseni nad njimi, bi pa morali videti Simona, ki je postal zelen med gledanjem showa... le zakaj :)

On the irelands every evening the lady boys make shows... and they can be really good ones (the shows I mean). Me and Maja were delighted by them :) but you should see Simon becoming completely green while looking at the show in the club. :)

Sever Tajske - CHIANG MAI

Koncno tudi fotke... ker vem da je lazje gledat, kot brat sem nalozila kar nekaj fotk. Zaradi tujih obiskovalcev strani, pisem tudi v anglescini, ki je zadnja 4 leta bila v mirovanju zato se opravicujem za vse slovnicne napake. Vazno da se razumemo ;)

Finally photos... I know it is easier to watch, than read. Cos of some foreign visitors... from now on I will make my best to write in English. My English was not used very often in the last 4 years so please apologize me for all mistakes.
Sveta trojica v nasem rahlo hipijevskem hostlu Julie's House.







Pri vecernem raziskovanju mesta je Tanja nasla svoj raj.... ananas in banane po 20 centov, mandarincki po 40 centov.... Prodajajo mini banance, ki so vec kot pol manjse od banan, ki jih kupujemo v Sloveniji.
During the evening explore of the city Tanja found her heaven.... ananas and bananas cost only 0.20 eur, mandarinas cost 0.40 eur... Mini bananas are more than half smaller then bananas we are eating in Slovenia.












Cez dan smo si ogledali tudi nekaj templjev... za nami speci buda. Za enim od temljev je bil parkec z drevesi 'bogatih misli'. In seveda Tanja je nasla najljubsega!!!! :)
Over the day we visited some temppels too... behind us The Sleeping Budha. Behind one temppel there war little park with trees of rich 'thoughts'. This one was my favourite!!! ;-)

Prva postojanka na trekingu....
vsak s svojo orhidejo na prsih na vhodu v Orchid farm. Na poziranje smo povabili nemko, ki je bila z nami na trekingu.
Our first stop on treking.... everyone bearing an orchid on his chest. On the picture one girl from Germany that was on the same trekking with us.







Druga postojanka je bila Long neck village. V sekundi - pet smo si nadeli obrocke in ze smo bli prjatli ;)
Second stop was Long-neck village... we putted the rings on and here we got some new friends :)






Slonji show, kjer so sloncki naslikali tudi rizbice. Najdrazji unikat je bil tudi 30 eur.

Show of elephants... they drew pictures too. The most expensive picture made by elephant was about 30 eur.

Z nemko sva zajahali, sloncka in ga med sprehodom razvajali z bananicami.
While riding the elephant we feeded it with bananas.

Z najetimi skuterji smo se preiskusili v vozni po levi strani... 'Ma kaj je ksn problem?!?'
We tried ourselves in driving motorbikes on the left side of the road (in Slovenia we drive on the right side).


Evo nas!

Večina mladih iz Bangkoga z vlakom nadaljuje pot proti severu, proti znamenitemu Chiang Maiju, predvsem z enim namenom udeleziti se trekinga, mi smo ubrali hitrejso pot in sli z letalom in se ugnezdili v prijetnem 'guesthouse' Julie, kjer smo sobo dobili za 1.5 eura/osebo/noc.

Ponudba trekingov je razlicna od enodnevnih naprej. Ker smo cez 3 dni imeli ze letalo na jug, smo vzeli enodnevni izlet na hrib Doi Suthep, ki je vseboval vecino stvari vrednih ogleda in je zgledal takole:
Bli smo mala skupina sestih, poleg nas sta bila se ena nemka, en american s svojo tajsko izvoljenko. Ugotvaljamo da se Tajke palijo na tujce.... (money, money, money must be funy in a richmens' world).
Prva postojanka je bila Farma orhidej. Orhidej je bilo malo morje, ampak glede na mamino zbirko v dnevni sobi niso delovale nic posebnega, nobene nove oblike nism zasledila. Torej... mami da te sezanim da imas doma pravo farmo orhidej.
Sledil je slonji show... Te prikupne zivalice (no ko si poleg njih so prave omare), so igrale nogomet, risale risbe, plesale, igrale na orglice.... v glavnem pravi show.
Pot je sledila v odmaknjeno vasico Long neck Village, kjer prebivajo priseljenci iz Burme. Vasico zaznamjejo stevilna rizeva polja, naprave za predelovanje riza in deklice v pisanih oblekah z obrocki na vratovih, ki pletejo rutke in sale.
Dve urna voznja po totalno razritih cestah na kosilo do kraja kjer so nas pricakali sloni, ki smo jih polni pricakovanja zajahali in uzivali za njihovimi vrati oz. na sedezu in jih razvajali z mini bananicami. Na koncu je sledil rafting po zelo nizki vodi, kar je pomenilo bolj skakanje po colnu in skalah :) Na koncu smo se nalozili na bambusov splav in odpluli po reki in njenih brzicah.
Sicer pa okolica Chiang Maia poleg vseh templjev ponuja stevilne mozne izlete v nacionalne parke, velike farme krokodilov, slonov, kac, v tovarne srebra, deznikov, itd. Najcenejsa moznost je seveda, da se znajdes sam – najames motorcek (tuk-tuk, razni tricikli, kolesi,…) ali taksi in potem te vozniki z veseljem vozijo naokoli, za nekaj bahtov.
Tako smo se naslednji dan odpravili na popoldanski izlet na Slapove hribovja Doi Suthep in ogled templja.
Zal slikic celega trekinga ni, ker je Twonka spet neki zaj.... in se slikice niso shranle na kljuc. Tako da si nase slikanje z long nack people, jahanje slonckov in ogled slapov lahko samo predstavljate :) Ostale slikce pa v kratkem, ker ta rac. je za luno in jih ne more nalozit.

Tajci so majhni in prijazni ljudje, ki se veliko smehljajo in vztrajno ponujajo svoje storitve od prevoznistva, hrane, masaz, seksa - nobena skrivnost seveda ni, da na Tajskem cveti prostitucija, tako moska kot zenska. Nase potovanje se nadaljuje na jug na otocek Koh Samui in otocek zelv - Koh Tao, kjer bomo dali vse 4 od sbe. O tem pa prihodnjic

BANGKOK

Sem bila ze kregana, da nic ne pisem... koncno prve objave iz Bangkoka!!!

Po naporni poti je sledilo nekajurno 'popoldansko' spanje in nabiranje energije za odkrivanje Bangkoka (zaradi casovne razlike smo bli 2 dni pravi vampircki). Osvzitev smo zakljucili s sadnimi frapeji, ki jih v BKK dobis na vsakem vogalu.... something good for mee :)))
NJAMI!


Po nekajurnem bluzenju po Kao San Roadu - srediscu dogajanja, smo nogicam privoscili vecerno masazo nogic, ceprav so Simona skoraj nalomili.




Prevoz po reki.









Kraljeva palaca in mi se gremo bodigarde. :)
