Day 1015                                         1st May 2019<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

13 miles ( Chanthaburi ) Average speed 7.7 mph Top speed 18 mph<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A good productive day off.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\nI was awake at 5 and studying my onward journey. I got up at 9 and went to find a sewing machine to fix my shorts and hammock. I found a gems market and a man with machine who did all my repairs for 40 baht.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I had brekkie of sausage eggs and rice before exploring this lovely city. It has lots of character and was once owned by the French. The buildings are impressive and it is very charming. It has the oldest cathedral in Thailand and much street art of a very high standard.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Artistic use of bikes by the bakery<\/p><\/div>\n

Then I visited many very good bike shops in search of bartape. I found some leather tape but at \u00a330 I couldn\u2019t justify the cost especially as I will soon be entering monsoon season so I opted for a 350 baht black tape which I will apply when my brown one is exhausted.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

An interesting one in the street<\/p><\/div>\n

As I sit here by the river having a beer I\u2019m reminded of a bird I\u2019ve only heard in Thailand. It\u2019s call sounds like it\u2019s saying fuck off! Sorry for the language but it\u2019s the only way to describe this bird. I\u2019ve not seen it but I have heard it\u2019s call often.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
