To tired to think of a proper title

Hi Everyone Last night I went out and had some fried rice at the street food market with some girls I met in my dorm room. It was nice. This morning I woke up early, at 6am and had quite a long day. I went on another tour. This time to Kanchaburi, which is a 2 hour drive west of Bangkok. We visited a WWII cemetary, which had Thai graves as well as POW graves. We then visited the war museum and the bridge over the River Kwai. During WWII Japan invaded Thailand and wanted to be able to move northwest into Burma, so they recruited workers from Asian and used POWs to build a the railroad. It is now called Death railway because several thousand people died working on it as a result of diseases spreading and also because the Allied forces bombed the brindge over the River Kwai several times (and Japan forced POWs to stand on the bridge in hopes that this would prevent it from being bombed...to no avail). I'm no history buff but all that stuff was pretty interesting to me. Apparently there is an old movie called "The River Kwai" so I'll have to check it out when I get home. After that we went to some waterfall nearby - not an entirely impressive one but it was nice to get my feet wet and climb on the rocks Then we had lunch and went for a ride on the Death railway and saw some of the countryside. I also saw tapioca growing (I had no idea it was a plant...I'm a moron!). The last stop of the day (not counting the jew factory which we had to stop at again..) was the Tiger Temple. It was a strange place. It is run by Monks and it started as some sort of place of refuge for injured and orphaned tigers and now it is set up so that you can go walk around these grounds and there are all kinds of animals just roaming around (chickens, deer, horses, water buffalo, elk). Then there is a place down in a canyon where there are tigers. I think they must have been sedated because they were just laying there all groggy. Then guides took you out one by one to pet them and have photos taken with them. At one point the guide had me sit down by one then to my shock me lifted the tigers head onto my lap. The photos tell all - my face was like "What the hell do you think you are doing?!?!?" Yeah intersting. After we got back, I went out for dinner with these 2 nice Aussies I met. We went to their hotel before going out. They are staying at the tallest building in Bangkok so I got to go up to the top floor, which revolves and look at the city! It was very cool! We got some curry and then went out roaming around at a night baazar. I didnt find anything but thats just as well, I have no room to carry anything more! We had a drink at a big outdoor pub area there while we listened to some horrible Thai version of the Backstreet Boys peform on stage! Altogether it was a really nice day!
