We spontaneously decide to take the train from Mae Klong to Ban Laem and back. For this train, the journey goes from terminal to terminal. 40 kilometers, 1 hour. Just centimeters away from displays, baskets, tables, and corrugated iron roofs, it rolls slowly and honking through the market. The awnings are folded in, and one must be careful of photographing tourists. An experience.
Right past houses, along salt farms, with stops in between, you exit over simple wooden stairs. When the tourist spectacle is over, the first carriage empties, it becomes quiet, school is out, work is done. We return in the evening, it's already getting dark, it was a beautiful day.
