Day 95, 70km:

Today was hot. I wrapped a wet bandanna around my face in an attempt to stop it burning. 
Thankfully in Thailand there are lots of shady pagodas with benches by the roadside. We are not sure if these are bus stops or picnic spots but regardless, they are most welcome. No longer will we have to eat lunch perched on rocks in the bushes. 
 
On the way we passed what I think was a monk ordination ceremony; a man dressed in white sat on the back of a flat bed truck whilst the whole village danced behind conga style to loud music. 
After a prolonged lunch break / siesta because of the heat we realised that we were not going to make it to San Phan Bok, our next destination, in one day. Thankfully we passed some fantastic camping opportunities; grassland and scrubby forest on bedrock with little streams flowing through it. We decided to stop.
