THE ARMY SERIES : EXERCISE CRESCENDO PART 3

R&R

It is finally R&R! Which means we are going home soon. I still don’t know if R&R means Rest and Relax or Rest and Recreation or whatever it could mean. I just know we are going home soon!
​

All dressed to leave the camp!

This post is pretty much going to be a photo blog because it is just R&R. Just us walking around.


I think it was a 2 days 1 night R&R. I cannot even remember the night I slept. I can only remember the places I went and that too because of the photos I took.


I think it started off with another round of canteen break before we left Sai Yok camp. I think I bought some pirated Oakley shades.


We then went off to someplace out of camp. It was definitely not Bangkok. I don’t know where. Some kind of town where we had lunch. Ooooh I did some googling and we didn’t actually leave the Kanchanaburi area. 


The first stop was the floating market. I heard of the floating market before. In school, we read about the floating market as one of the unique places in Thailand. So we went there. But we were boys so nothing there attracted our attention. They were selling vegetables and groceries and fruits and stuff. Why would we buy those? I cannot deny, when I walked pass it, I thought this could be another….. or one of the many floating markets in Thailand because it didn’t look like the ones I saw in books. 


Anyway, I really have nothing much to say because I was much more excited to go home. 


Enjoy the pictures.

Some place where we had lunch.

We were walking towards the meal place and when we had finish eating, a man came and showed us plates like this with pictures of us. At that time I was impressed that they could do it so quickly. So I bought this.

Heard of this place from the movie "The Bridge Over The River Kwai". Never got to watch it but the tune is very popular.

So this is the bridge. Point and shoot camera don't do justice. I strayed on my own to see the views and the museums. The rest preferred to go shopping or just lepaking. Boring.....

Touristy show. Elephants playing football.

I like this one. I still wish that I can stage an epic play with epic battles. Best if I can act in one too.

A photo with one of the sellers at the pasar malam. Indo-Chinese ladies are so my type.

Ok done! That's all! Go home!
