  • Hey guys, welcome back to another vlog! Today was super cool - I met some really nice people from Thailand at the River Kwai Bridge. We hung out, talked, and snapped some awesome pics. I gotta say, this spot in Kanchanaburi is now my absolute fave, especially for my morning coffee fix!
    After chilling by the bridge, I decided to explore a new area in Kanchanaburi. And guess what? I went to check out this super famous thing called the Skywalk! Now, me and skywalks? Let's just say we usually don't get along, haha! So, you gotta stick around to see if I conquer this walk in the clouds or not.
    To wrap up the day, I took a leisurely walk along the Kanchanaburi riverfront. It was so relaxing and the views were stunning. Anyway, I won't spoil it all for you here.

    I wasn't sure on the cemetery. It looked like a Chinese cemetery. But I'm guessing it could be connected to the War Cemetery.

    Nice one Wayne. Note there are dots all along the glass walk way and looking down they catch your attention and the fact there is actually something there under foot. It does psychologically reassure and alleviate the fear of heights and any potential fall. Well that's my take on it anyway mate. Top video. 🤩 Nice wrap for you by Chai on his Boulevard Da Nang video overnight. Lovely fella Chai!! 🤩

    The Sky Walk appears to be longer than when I visited Kanchanaburi in December 2023 or is that just the camera effect?
    I remember pulling up on Mr Dan’s motorbike & sidecar taxi, took one look at it and told MR Dan to return me to my room for brunch.
