We woke up at 5.15 and 6.30 we were ready for departure.

First destination today is Pathum Thani to visit old friends

It’s far to cycle 50 km. Maybe we should take a bus…

or the train.

Stopping at a gas station to have a coffee and a sandwich. 40 km and tailwind so it looks good 🙂

After 53 km we are at the gate to the street that leads to our friends house.

We are a bit early and Our friends are out buying things to eat so they told us to wait at the motorcycle taxi stand.

Maybe time for a cheat and go with the MC taxi

And we recieved a very warm welcome by P’Ya and P’Aek

And they had even made a beautiful sign to welcome us with

On the road again after spending a few hours visiting P’Ya, P’Aek and Ohm.
We just crossed the ChaoPhraya river going west. Seems like we are getting a headwind. Reports from Banglen says that itis raining there.

Touching the outskirts of Bangkok. The traffic is intense even a sunday afternoon.

First sign of Banglen. 15 km to go

Back on the countryside again. Green rice paddies is much more nice to look at than concrete buildings.

Outside my host familys previous house.

The father in my host family passed away 5 years ago. First thing to do in Banglen is to visit his toomb at the temple.
