9.30am we arrived at border after a train journey of 12 hours. |
After clearing the immigration departments we took a simple breakfast at the train station. The train then continued the ride at 11.00am. |
My ticket for a berth KL - Hatyai. |
12.20pm we reached Hatyai Junction. Patric Yee joined us from here, he made his own way to Hatyai by bus and it was faster travelling by bus than a train. |
Sam Cheong immediately purchased tickets for the next train ride to Pak Khalong. 21Baht each for the fare. |
Majority of the passengers were local people. I enjoyed the scenery from the window openings. There were many stopovers with enchanting characteristics of a small train station. |
At last we reached Pak Khalong and that ended our long 18 hours of rock and roll in the trains. I just could not wait to pedal. |
The full team at Pak Khalong train station with the Roger who came a day earlier. |
Immediately we set up our bicycles & rode to Pak Khalong for a light refreshment. |
Let's go and check into Talay Noi Resort which Roger has made a prior arrangement. |
Individual chalet for around RM50 per night. |
After a quick laundry and shower we headed to Thale Noi town, a small town but with attractive lighting decorations in conjunction with Songkran water festival and tomorrow is Songkran Day. |
We visited a local food fair in the town itself. |
Thailand food is very interesting and it was time for us to explore their food. In fact it was food food and food most of the time. |
Hooray!!! it's dinner time. |
Some of the foods we tried in this restaurant.
Tomorrow is going to be another interesting day .... Cheers!!!
