Kanch - Installment One

This last weekend was a long weekend - Monday was the anniversary of Buddha's birth, Enlightenment, and death, so the students had school off.  A bunch of us from Lertlah decided to take a trip up to  Kanchanaburi for the weekend, and we had a great time!

The hotel we stayed at was called Ploy, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who happens to be traveling in the area.  For around $30 a night you get the beautiful room pictured below, complete with a personal walkout garden. The room had a relaxing, authentic, "Siam" (Thai) style to it, which everyone loved.

Martine and I shared a room, and we are pretty sure had a monster sharing it with us because we kept hearing very, very strange loud noises coming from the bathroom/garden area.

The hotel had also had a beautiful pool and bar, and the landscaping was breathtaking. 

Door to our room, and the stained wood staircase beside it.

One of the pathways to the pool, would not recommend after a few drinks as it requires some balance.

The infinity pool and a sitting area next to the bar.  (As with all the photos, click to enlarge.)

Money well spent!!
