#traveltales from #thailand
* The cab driver almost got offended when asked if all the construction workers are Thai. They are from Cambodia and Myanmar, and he made certain that was understood
* I can feel the gears shift on the diesel #train to Maha Chai and eventually Mae Kong
* The windows open fully! But you need to be careful as the trees are growing right to where the train shaves them off
* Seems to be the right train, as there are two guided groups (three tourists total)
* Gerry (#FOSDEM staff friend) and myself are rocking this without guide; seeing guides is both reassuring and annoying
* #Train ticket for one hour ride is 10 Baht or 0.27€
* There is no train bridge. We will get out, see about catching a ferry, and board a different train
* End stop is going to be Mae Klong. So we will see the railway market fold up and spread again every time a train passes. For the first run, we see it from the train
