The monk had to take a rest after that climb, too.

I love this section and almost all these very southern cities, Andrea. Mind you if you would continue cycling from NST towards Songkhla you will predominantly roll along shrimp farms. South of Songkhla is great stuff again but the ongoing conflicts in the Narathiwat, Pattani and Yala provinces pose a real threat. As I know from personal experience

We haven't been south of Chumphon on that side of the peninsula, it looks very inviting.

Put it on your to-do list for Sichon then, Andrea. Both the 24 hours place and this lovely restaurant are right opposite the GPO

We have stayed in plenty of these and they have almost always been perfectly fine. In areas where all of the signs are in Thai we just look for the "24", indicating they are open 24 hours, by the hour. Some of them come with oddly placed mirrors and/or complimentary toothbrushes and condoms.

Thailand, you've got to be kidding. This looks like solitary confinement at a prison!

Arg. That would be terrible.

I know, Bruce! I come from a labour background family and have always supported the philosophy of fair pay. This is far away from it...

You know it all, Bruce! You stop at this almost neglected looking place in the middle of nowhere and they will surprise you with one of the best meals ever. For 40 Baht. I love it!
