Sahur with nasi and maggi with ikan bilis kacang and sambal daging. After subuh and tadarus, we slept again for an hour. By 8.45 am we checked out and drove towards Phatthalung Provincial Central Mosque located at Pak Phayun town area. We drove on Route 4, then onto Route 4181 and Route 4049. Pak Phayun is a district in Phatthalung. There are many eateries around the mosque area. We performed our dhuha prayers here.

To the east of Pak Phayun is the Thale Luang lake, which through a narrow strait opens into Songkhla Lake south of the district. We crossed the bridge to Ko Mak island but did not explore the island further.

Before we drove out of Pak Phayun, we stopped at two more mosques in Pak Phayun. Masjid Ansor Rus Sunnah is a new modern mosque located at the foot of a hill. It has two floors and quite spacious, peaceful, and clean. A religious School, Madrasah Ansor Rus Sunnah Al-Khiriat is located at the hilltop. From the top you can see a beautiful panoramic view of the Lake. Another mosque visited was a small old Masjid Darul Aman situated at a corner of a busy intersection.
