Today we drove on Rama II Super Highway and paid B30 for toll. As it was early in the morning, there was a massive traffic jam on the bridge exiting from the city of Bangkok.

There was also major road works along the route and the journey took us longer. We had a coffee break at Amazon café and around 3:30 pm we arrived at Khun Sarai R&R for a late lunch. We arrived in Chumphon early and checked in Nana Buri Hotel at B700/night.

After performing our prayers and a short rest, we went for an hour of therapeutic foot reflexology at the hotel spa. Tonight we skipped dinner as we were still full.
