| (The famous Bridge over River Kwai) |
Day 15: 24 December 2015 (Thursday)
Route: Kanchanaburi – Chumphon
Distance: 477 km
After some photo shots around the bridge area we started riding towards Chumphon. The weather was sunny and clear when we started riding. It began to rain heavily after and the road became slippery and wet. At one of the stop at a petrol station, one of the bikes spun on the slippery cement floor and broke the engine cover. Luckily the rider was uninjured.
We continued riding and when we reached Chumphon it was still drizzling. We went to have a late lunch at a Muslim Restaurant. While waiting for the food to be ready we performed our prayers at a nearby mosque.
We checked in Nana Buri Hotel for the night. Dinner was again where we had our lunch. After dinner we had an hour of foot reflexology in the hotel spa.
