Thursday Evening - Depart from Bangkok's Train Station for Overnight Train Trip to Chiang Mai



Off to the railroad station...all 11 of us. The train station is quite large and busy. While our guide watched our luggage we had a bite to eat. Seven of us ate together and I had the best panang red Currie + shrimp that I have ever had..yuum. Caught the train at 6 PM and off we went heading for Chiang Mai. The train car was roomy, clean and air conditioned. Each seat converted into a double sleeping bunk...quite roomy and ingenious in it design. We talked, read, sang and hit the hay at 10 PM. The smartest thing I did was to bring my NASCAR ear plugs and sleeping mask with me... I slept soundly about 7 hours being rocked like a baby by the train...:-}...
