The decision to camp last night was right as the last 14 km to Oudomxai which i rode today have tough climb if i were to continue last night.But when you had enough rest and start fresh,it was quite relax and enjoyable. This was my 2nd visit to Oudomxai both occasions on cycling. The 1st was cycling down from Luang Namtha and this time from Dien Bien Phu. Not much had changed,i still could remember some of the building and streets,maybe now have more shops and guesthouses.Checked into Visian Guesthouse ( 60k Kips) and making very sure there is WiFi available. Met a German super bike tourer with final destination of New Zealand.The advantage of checking early is you have time to go for a walking sightseeing tour around town.
