Caught a bus back to Bangkok this morning. It took less then half the time that the train trip did, but was much less scenic. Sat next to a young woman who commutes into Bangkok to study business administration, she was overjoyed to have someone to practise her English on. She spoke very well, with almost no accent except when she was unsure of a word, which wasn't too often. So, that was nice.
My taxi driver, on the other hand, i could strangle. He seemed to be going around in circles looking for a petrol station where he could haggle down the price. I think the taxi ride to my hotel was longer then the bus ride fro Kanchanaburi. I'm not staying in the same place - this one's much better priced, and decently close to the airport.
After the last couple of days, i'm feeling quite pleasantly tired. I'll probably make the rest of today a 'rest day', and i'm not sure what i'll do tomorrow. Friday's going to be a pain in the arse, since my plane doesn't take off until after 6:00 i'm going to have to find a way to occupy myself.

I reiterate my suggestion for a day trip to Ayutthaya on Friday. You could be back easily in time for your flight. Also, the train trip is pleasant.
Enjoy your last couple of days before you return to the same old Canberra!
