Day 2!

We're heading off to train station for morning train, our destination was Pitsanulok located in the upper central of Thailand. This morning our train was quite comfortable,  with aircon, and a big window enough for us to enjoying the scenery of countryside along the way.



Sweet and sour chicken on train was nice and filled us up before we arrived in Pitsanulok in the afternoon. Our journey was smooth and all the friendly welcome from local people on the train which was impressive.

We were finally arrived at Pitsanulok where we took " Song teaw" or the truck with 2  long rolls of seat along  by each side. Basically we were sitting face to face and off to Sukhothai, the 1st capital city of Thailand in 12th century.

Today we were arrived at the guest house in a good time after just 1hour on the song teaw, then we have enough time to relax before dinner. However we had a long day travelling in the hot weather but everyone refreshing up so quick after had a nice shower then get ready for a real massage which is served to you in the room.

It was a long day but we were enjoyed our journey all the way to Sukhothai...

Dinner time!!! We had plan for the local food which is also the highlight in this trip as well. Then we cross the bridge to the other side of the river where the food market is.

After nice dinner and conversation we crossed the street to the other side to the fruit market. It was full of colourful fruit and closed late at night ( in this town actually every shop close about 8.30-9.00 pm ). On the way back we were also grabbed some " roti " which is a flat and crispy pancake . A perfect dessert!. We will sleep well -  full of food, fruit and dessert... I am ready for tomorrow!
