5-March 2011

The route 4034, 1003, 4011, 1010, Hwy 4, 4035, 4199, 4133, 4212, 4027, 4178, 4009

Total distance 229 km

The 4034 out of town to avoid as much of hwy 4 as possible

It hammered down with rain last night for a few hours and apparently has been doing that for a few days now so this greenery should last for a while

In one of the villages the mobile fishmonger is doing his rounds

Now on the 4035 and what a lovely scenic road, my first time along this road

In a weeks time I am going to be pining for this greenery

Now the brush salesman turns up

Some rollercoasters as well and a pleasant ride into Surat Thani

I stay at the Wang Khun Phen (no English sign) at N09.08.207 E099.19.836

Double bed, TV, private toilet&shower for 200 Baht fan, 270 Baht AC

A lovely pork sausage and vegetable pizza for 175 Baht at Baansatek N09.08.647 E099.19.511

Must have been nice to be able to eat fish (from the sea)! I know you don't eat the fresh water fish in Asia.
