Oops, I've misplaced my camera, maybe it's in the truck. Be back in a moment with images & report.

My brother-in-law invited me & my wife up to his mums place in Sukhothai, and not wanting to hurt his feelings, I accepted. However I forgot just how damn far it is Took about 500 km's to get there. As I had to return to BKK on business we went in two separate trucks, at different times as I was in the shower when they called round to get us. The route we took was by way of Bang Pa-in, Ayutthaya, China & Phitsanulok, basicall the same way we went to Chiang-Mai last year. As I recall I paid 60 baht in tollway charges for the outbound trip. The trip up there was boring & uneventful except for the gas stops, snack stops, drink stops & slash stops.
The place we were headed was Sisatchanalai, which was outside of Sukhothai city by some way. We arrived around 6pm, just in time for dinner.
The nice Thai house where we stayed. Upstairs was traditional Thai construction but they had converted the former cattle pen (downstairs) for guests.
Here is the shower room. You will note that I disconnected the hot water heater, as it was an accident waiting to happen.
