Kanchanaburi, which is 2 hours from bangkok and is an
excellent place to chill out for a couple of days either
before you hit your hard packed travelling routine or after
a excellent but exhausting tour of thailand.
It is a laid back sort of place which has excellent places
to stay, the best is "Apples Place" and is my recommendation
for good accomodation, excellent food, friendly homestyle
atmosphere where you will want to stay for a long time (we
did) Apple and Noi are your hosts and they do everything
possible to keep you happy and entertained. They have the
best tours in Kan. can hire mopeds and will tell you the
best places to chill out. they will arrange all your travel
arrangements. Go to the Felix hotel for a swim, or the
night markets.
Apple has also started a Thai-cookery course, and once you
have tried the food you won't want to go before she teaches
you how to make her mouth watering curries, Yum Yum.

I was in Kan way back in 1990 and used to stay at The PS
GH. I'm not sure if it's still there it was further down
the river going towards the bridge than VN GH and near the
Jolly Frog or something which was just opening.
Whilst there I was befriended by a young girl called Apple
I guess she was about 15/16. She used to come down to the
GH and practise her English with one or two of the guests.
She used to hang round with a girl called 'A'. I received
letters from both of them shortly after the trip - but as
is often the case we lost contact.
I'll dig out an old photo and Email it just to see whether
it's the same girl.
If you're in touch ask her if she remembers me - I was
travelling with an old friend called Patrick at the time.
We're both from Nottingham, UK.
I'll be in touch with the photo as soon as I can dig it out.
Cheers
