The way Tis stopped on the bridge because someone was taking a photograph is testimony to your parenting but to Tis and his own uniqueness, loved this vlog I felt like I was on holiday 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍💯💯💯🤍

[@colinb8512]

I agree, it was great to see Otis respect that someone else was taking photos and that he should wait. So many people in the world today don't have that kind of respect and consideration for others. That's a big thumbs up to Ryan and Damo 👍

[@ShaunHearn-pj2bi]

Loved this one Ryan and great to see the excellent manners "Tis" has when he stopped for the Tourists taking photos on the Bridge. You and Damo are great parents and it is showing in your children and family. I agree Travelling is the best education for Kids and I am confident you will achieve your "bucket list" with your family.

[@keithburgess9241]

Brings back so many memories. Your parenting skills are amazing. Too bad you left the teaching profession. You have a beautiful family. Thank for sharing.

[@fhorst02]

Great to see you guys making good memories!

[@anoukilangakoon7392]

Great to see Tiss enjoying himself and both of you making super memories. ❤

[@gma-68]

Hi Ryan, I do not comment on vlogs very often, but I do watch all your vlogs on both channels. I really appreciate the effort you and Damo put in to create and keep us entertained. thank you ❤🙏

[@patrickcurtin8854]

That's me in a nutshell... I don't comment but love everything about your channels and your family. Full credit to Ryan and Damo, Amazing people 🙏❤️

[@patrickcurtin8854]

Otis is a little gentleman 🙏✌️😎

[@ukcol]

When I was in kanchanaburi, we talked to a longtail boat driver at the bridge and he took us down the river to a cave temple and a war cemetery, pointing out landmarks on the way. Well worth doing.

[@davidkidd3863]

Tune in again soon for The further exciting adventures of Ryan and Otis❤😂

[@michaelomara1922]

Nice ryan with tis.i think the means of knowledge is travel enjoy

[@Farkurnell1]

Great memories being created with Otis, enjoy👍🏻

[@Paul-wu5qy]

Very moving hearing you explain to Otis how the Bridge over the river Kwai was built Ryan !

[@chriscollins6610]

Turn the key open the boot, I laughed.

[@margarettownsley9500]

Hello Ryan and Otis thank you both for sharing your father and son trip it you are both making amazing memories and I agree in regards to doing it now and not waiting to long life is for living today not waiting excess amount of years to fill a bucket list as we don’t know what tomorrow may bring Otis is clever reading the sign and understanding it’s big money if you break the rules he’s a smart boy you are a fantastic father you are worthy of the Title to be called Dad enjoy the rest of your holiday I look forward to seeing the next vlog thank you both

[@MattLewis-f7o]

Ryan. That bridge is not the original Bridge over the River Kwai. There is just a little bit left of the original, which is further down the river near the old steam train.

[@MattLewis-f7o]

The bridge you are on is a replica.

[@craigberesford726]

No the bridge he’s on is the original bridge which British servicemen dismantled and brought from Jakarta in the second world war the small trestle wooden bridge you’re referring to was only built to carry things across the river to construct this bridge. The two square arches you see in the middle Were replacements of the round arches when the Americans eventually bomb the bridge in the second world war after that the British government charged the Thai government 50 million baht for the bridge which they had to pay. Please read your history and get your facts right.

[@deeplorable8988]

That's the river from the movie. I had no idea it was in Thailand. Ryan is teaching his son, and me.

[@STARRUNNER45-e4z]

And me ✌🏼💜

[@pattraynor3615]

fair play to Otis, stopping while other tourists were taking photos, well mannered child 👍👍

[@Jim-zu2lr]

Great family great trip always enjoy your video's Canada 🇨🇦 Saskatoon

[@sgraham005]

Nice. Ottis must be having fun! Quick question we are in Pai what was the bread you liked so much? Want to try it

[@Per-OlofBrenegård]

😊😊😊 Otis is so nice,when he stop walking when the people wanted to take a picture 😊😊❤❤

[@terrywhitter4123]

Isn’t the Mae Klong where they harvest the small river mackerel? You see them packaged gutted with their heads bent at a right angle?

[@terrywhitter4123]

Kanchanaburi is a beautiful province

[@MhairiMcKay-w1x]

OMG I watch your channel all the time. Can't believe your in Kanchanaburi the same time as I am, amazing enjoy

[@colinb8512]

Great vlog today Ryan. So nice to see Otis, a boy only six years old, show such respect and consideration for someone taking photos. Manners like that are in short supply in the past couple of decades, at least in western society. Fun fact that I don't know if you're aware of based on what you explained from your knowledge of the bridge: it's not the original bridge built by prisoners of war. If I remember correctly, the original bridge was demolished. I think it deteriorated due to lack of maintenance, so it was replaced.

[@marglewis7652]

thanks for having us come along to share this holiday with you and Otis, I've really enjoyed everything

[@donthefamscalise746]

Wearing a hat like daddy what fun ! 💕For Tis!! His hat a doughnut a boat and daddy al to himself! Great memories Tis is so smart and he will learn so much!!!

[@Per-OlofBrenegård]

Otis is so cute ❤❤❤

[@michaelj2528]

Great memories that Otis will remember all his life , great that he is seeing and learning about the history of the Bridge . Nice to see you both having a great time together. Always interesting and informative and entertaining

[@amyjoforaker3655]

That sky walk is my idea of hell...

[@LeeQuisenberry]

Thank you for this amazing video. Miss Thailand so much

[@Philo29]

Daddy and Son special day, definitely Tis enjoy and will remember as he grow

[@wendy-0101]

❤👍🏼That is so exciting for you both. 200 bath is unbelievable. Wishing you both a wonderful weekend. 💞💞

[@mattalford389]

Great on the river! Never been on there myself. Looks fun. Otis seems to be having a great time. Good for him to learn about the Bridge, and it's circumstances.

[@haggis087]

Been to Kanchanaburi 4 times previously (Last time earlier this year) and always drive there in a rental vehicle which is best as can explore further afield. Just when you think you have seen everything then many other places appear! from temples, historical war sites, elephants and countryside come into view. We travelled from there all the way to Pai this year in a 3 day relaxed trip seeing so many beautiful places. Tis is a lovely young man, beautiful physically and spiritually, a testament to her parents and you can tell that he is loving time with his Daddy :)

[@mariettathornton5924]

Love this father & son video Ryan❤ Tiss is such a well behaved child and it’s great to see you take him with you! We’ve never been there and would love to check this place out one of these days 😊 Thanks so much for taking us along 🙏🏼

[@helenpullan8310]

Thanks for a great day out! Helen x

[@chriscastello3922]

Priceless! You are a great Dad. Taking time to teach the history of the bridge/railroad, even though it’s unpleasant, was great see..

[@ERone43]

Kanchanaburi + rent a scooter = unlock a new level of Thailand. For me at least

[@patriciocordova449]

I just watched this video with my son, (also half Thai) and he loved it, thank you. I would also recommend Hellfire pass, the walk is totally overwhelming if you know what happened there. Cheers

[@MaegicDude]

seeing you and tis double up on the scooter reminds me of me and my son in the 90s whilst we lived in Taiwan. My son was able to somewhat drive by the age of six. No Cell phones so no distractions. lol

[@thailandpussyhunter]

Lovely story thanks for sharing ❤❤

[@bobm9784]

Hellfire Pass is worth a look as well

[@lillianrosbottom7366]

Absolutely loving these videos thank you . Enjoy 😊😊

[@VistaThaiGuy]

Do a reenactment of James Bond's "The Man With The Golden Gun". Otis can play the boy that sells tourists wooden carved elephants from the klongs to the long-tailed boats!!!😎🐘🧒

[@willemdutch503]

Am happy for you you enjoyed this nice time with your son. Wish you all a great life there. Willem, from a cold The Netherlands 😂

[@WAWZDAT]

You got smart & polite son. On the boat, he took is hat off so he wouldn't loose it and I don't think you told him too. Also, without you telling him, he stopped for the the other people taken pictures. He is very aware of what is going on around him and considerate of others. Well done Dad.

[@myldwinpierre3962]

Ryan, do you know why there are dots etched on the glass?

[@Per-OlofBrenegård]

Your video with you and Otis so fun Ryan 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

[@markslupe7197]

The memories of this trip will last a lifetime for Otis and yourself. We were there a couple years ago and it's a very sobering experience to learn more about and actually be on the bridge and Death Railway. After exploring a bit of Kanchanaburi we rode the train about 30 minutes to visit Kasae Cave. We then traveled west to Sangkhla Buri to see the Mon Bridge and make merit in the morning with the Monks on the other side. They also have boat rides that let you explore several places and see the sunken temple.

[@jay.rhoden]

Sounds similar to Taiwan, There is a railway and road in Taiwan's Taroko gorge which was also built by forced labour under the Japanese. They have a memorial/temple/shrine called "Eternal Spring Shrine" in memory of it.

[@derrensherratt]

Ryan . Can you please get in touch with mum . We all need to sort this out.asap . Thank you

[@hans-ulrichfischer963]

[@gorloff]

Great video Ryan, enjoyed it a lot 😊

[@irislozinsky3960]

Visited the River Kwai. In 2007. Took a train ride too, Great sacrifice of human life !

[@davidkelly-cl4mj]

What a great adventure you an Tis are having. These trips are definitely going to make lasting memories for both of you. Th Bird Lady was brilliant, an a full tank of petrol!! Unheard of. Loved the pink crash helmet for Tis !! Kanchanaburi is a great spot despite some dark history as you said but its all part of the attraction. Glad you guys are having such a epic adventure together Ryan, stay safe

[@maryziggy8802]

My mum travelled the world. Not long before she died I asked her what was her favourite holiday she replied with you kids

[@trentpatton2616]

You should bye ya wife a nice yellow gem from that restaurant under the bridge. There is a great tiny shop there .

[@andrewwilson194]

Otis is totally gorgeous... nothing else to say

Thanks Nice blog

[@natop7495]

Nice vlog and I just read the history again about the prisoner of war , english prisoners died 1200 from 1600 from cholera , malaria, … sad …

[@WalkingmanPattaya]

Glad all is going well on the vacation with tis. Will stop with my Boomer comments as they are from living in a different era. it's all good man. Peace and Love Y'all PS my favorite pastime is reading other peoples comments on your vlogs...haha.

[@jacovandermerwe84]

Good on you for not accepting freebies.... Mate, I wish you would put out more content on Ryan and 'Mo. I devour everything you publish. I am subscribed. I love your family, love seeing Thailand from the reality side of things. I am very impressed that you teach 'Tis about the history. I remember very well visiting the bridge over the river Kwai with my kids, so many years ago. This is actually not the real bridge. The original is to the left, if you face North. Just stumps remaining on the river Kwai banks. I am a military historian, so I know it intimately. If ever you get the opportunity, visit Hellfire Pass on this railway line. Such a sad history, and very much part of the Aussie ANZAC history... Good job. Keep it up!

[@mathewhunt81]

Stay eternal, brother.

your a great father husband human ryan.. ❤

Looking for day 1 Kanchanaburi mate.

[@anielkhaderoe179]

It is not you dont focus on traveling but you where caged in the work, sleep slavery mindset, Now you free from the matrix and the alcohol , having your family and bussiness is setting you free.

[@kevwandless]

Ryan firstly I must say this isn't a negative post. As we both talk thai, your thai is lightyears ahead of mine. Ok! People need to understand the pronunciation " river kwai " how it's said in English means " c@£k/f#£k. The thai pronunciation is " kware" you know this isn't a dig at the channel

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Yea no dig taken I think I mentioned it last vlog and this one 😁🙏

[@kevwandless]

@lifeinruralthailand sorry I missed that.... you have too many channels 55555
