We were originally supposed to ride via steam train, but alas, it was being repaired. Instead, we rode a special "Thailand Tourism" train featuring the Royal Barges:
Onboard, we listened to our guides explain the day's events. We also passed the microphone around and everyone introduced themselves to the group:
There were trivia contests, in which you could win a stuffed toy if you knew the answer. Here, a girl from Singapore won a prize from the owner of the railway:
Included in the tour was also a mini breakfast of jelly juice and a muffin! Yum! ^_^
This travel group was unique in that it attracted people from all over the world. On the train, I sat next to a woman from Kenya. A guy from Egypt on the tour said he had just passed his Canadian citizenship test! Bravo! I also chatted with two ladies from California, and a kindergarden teacher from the U.K. There were people from: Japan, Indonesia, India, Russia, and Malaysia.
