I am fine today.
We needed to reach a train station which was 4 stations away. We were very surprised to find out that we had to pay only 2 Baht (about RM0.20) per person. We found out later that the local here don't even had to pay. The train was very "ancient" and someone told us that it was "poor people train". I think we won't be able to find a free train ride in Malaysia like in Thailand.
When we were in the train, Pastor Andrew called us and requested us to identify the location. We said that we were in a train, heading towards Phaya Thai station which was near the The Siam Mission. He couldn't understand what we were talking about as he himself never boarded such as train before. He asked a local who was with him to help, and surprisingly even the local also never board such as a train :-( Ps. Tan and I were definitely "more advanced" than any of them in this regard :-)
Pastor Andrew asked us to dropped by somewhere and he would picked us up. We did that, get off the train the next station, but we didn't even know where we were. The so called station that we get off is just a small wooden platform. In the end we stopped a taxi to bring us back to the hotel.
Pastor Andrew waited for us in the hotel and brought us for a great dinner after that :-)
