A double portion of chicken tikka botti and three chapatis, that was 170 Bahts worth of delicious food at Bismillah

Possibly it starts up there somewhere

I completely circumnavigated the waterfall and couldn't find the water source

I ride and walk down muddy tracks looking for the stream

A zoomed in shot looks like water entering

I walked around this as far as I could but couldn't see any water flowing in

Now the sun is out for a while and the temperature climbs a bit, at the moment I am enjoying this track as its not muddy and its better riding it like this then when its dusty

Now to ride to the Temple at the top to see if I can finally solve the mystery of where the water comes from

Now we can walk around in a loop

Everyone crosses without slipping in, it would have been a very unpleasant cold experience otherwise

It finally stopped raining here just before midday so an afternoons ride was desperately needed
