Having my bicycle all tuned up and running well I was excited to get back on it and cover a bit of a distance towards the Malaysian border.
Before I set off though I was invited to have breakfast with Toon, his wife and his brother in town, so in truth I cheated just 15km where I got a ride into town.
The road was repetitive all day having to follow the coastal road south... Really nothing of interest occurred, unless of course you think a rotting dead dog with a missing leg that washed ashore is interesting... That I had to take a picture of....
Anyways, I found a temple on the coast where I asked some monks if I could sleep under the shelter for the night and I assumed that they were ok with it, so I grabbed some local seafood and pitched my tent.
