... with only about 100km+ left to Kamphaeng Phet, I took a slow cruising speed below 100km/hr watching these flowering trees by the road..
Riding or driving here, one should be extremely defensive.. the pick-up drivers are really fast and reckless, changing 3 lanes in 3 meters, cutting out from junctions.. coming in between you at tremendous speed without warning.. so, watch your ass not every other min but seconds...... after being scared by the cow, I decided to take a break before Nakhon Sawan.. having too much spicy Thai, I decided to go western, fast food. hmm, even Chester's Grill don't spare you with chilli.. Fried chicken set also comes with chilli padi..?? goodness
This is a boring trunk road up north.. to spike some excitement to it, 2 cows suddenly jump out of their pack onto the road into my way.. SHIT.. the one behind was too near for me to brake and I accelerate pass him going in between the 2 cows... holy cow..!! phew, cold sweat...
worried of leaving things behind.. DONE..!! and oops phone charger not in yet.. uurghh..
Unpack and packing to hit the road again is a stressful process for me.. especially when it's daily, reaching late noon.. unpack and pack again the nxt morning.. well, probably stress due to too many things (electronic gadgets) I have with me.. but I must also admit this is my worst department... hmmm
View from my room.. taking a good look one more time before packing to leave.. thats Pa Sak River running behind this Krungsri Hotel..

ReplyDeleteholy cow...going in between 2 cows! if you hit them, you'll have a lot of beef steaks to last you...no need to go to Chester's Grill...ha ha. When we were driving into the roads in d canadian rockies, there were also signs "Beware of moose". A moose can suddenly cross the road.
ReplyDeleteLooks like autumn flowers..beautiful shades
Take your time to ride... can be scary boy.. I bet the cows got small backside for you to go thru..
