Total distance 104 km
Something is cooking in the first village I stop at
I am told its a mixture of pork, garlic and sticky rice
A girl here speaks English, I ask if its a wedding but she says no and mentions a new home, perhaps its a house warming celebration
I am given a bag full which I decline but she tells me to take it or they will be offended, I tried a small piece but found it disgusting
The Burmese guy and his sister who manage my guest house were only too happy to accept it though and the looks on their faces suggested it was a delicacy to them
The guy I saw yesterday with only one leg was here as well
Overlooking the village from above
A dry stone wall, one of my pet hates as a bricklayer is being asked to build these
The track turns very stony and rutted and I am hoping I can find another exit so I don't need to return this way
The track finishes at these stones, I can see another double track at the bottom but need to get down there somehow
I ride over and through the stones and manage to get down
The walking path was unrideable so I rode on the field
Out onto a proper double track, easily done on a bike but that short section at the stones means its single track to get through
Lots of water being used here
But this reservoir is constantly being pumped full from an irrigation canal
The ice cream man makes an appearance
Pork curry and two portions of brown rice at Sara's Takeaway 150 Baht
