<\/a>Back on the road at the crack of dawn, very pleasurable too, even the 12 lane highways out of Bangkok were good fun, \u00a0apart from when 3 lanes peel of to the left and I needed to be going straight on \u00a0but, as you can tell, I survived.<\/p>\nI made the 61 miles it to the previously booked \u00a0Baansuanphidchamik<\/a>a so called resort , although it’s just a group of chalets, a bit more deluxe than the ones from my childhood at Butlins in Skeggie but chalets all the same.<\/p>\n The new iPhone holder worked very well, once I had discovered thE two lugs that stop it sliding out! The big plus is that I can leave it plugged into the charger so I arrived with 100% charge the minus (as always) is that my sweaty hands and head stop the finger action working \ud83d\ude41 \u00a0but no overheating today!<\/p>\n Here as usual is the Strava:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n and the pictures of the day are here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>Later on I decided to do some exploring all was OK until I came to a section where the road stopped \ud83d\ude41 looking at OSM I could see it restarted again a couple of miles further along the railway track I could also a track where other folks had had the same idea so I went for a bit of off roading, where the missing road bridge was someone had thoughtfully put planks on the sleepers so you could use the railway bridge – good fun until I noticed a train in the distance \ud83d\ude42 The remainder was through delightful villages & around Buddhist \u00a0temples.<\/p>\n<\/a>The great thing about this place is that the floating market at Amphawa i<\/a>s literally a hundred metres down the road, so I gave Sally a little tour on Facetime, which works incredibly well on 3G, and then returned this evening for a \u00a0gorgeous fresh fish & rice.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
