Early start at 7 today trying my best to do a 100km to Oudomxai,the plan looks achievable with no big climbs.At 10.30am i already clocked 45km for early lunch in Paknamnoi and 63km in Muang La for drink stop. The weather was cloudy and the rolling terrain that follows a river, with altitude gradually up from 300m to 600m over.However at 3pm and another 13 km from my targeted desination,I was attracted by a roadside hut with a bamboo raise floor,and a small running stream from the paddie field, I was in 2 minds whether to continue or to stay. Thinking that not worth to check in a guesthouse in Oudomxai late,might as well camp tonight, ride to town early tomorrow morning and check in a guesthouse with Wifi to update my blog.
