Another day of hot hot ride not much different from yesterday. Have plan to stay in Pakkading as told by the Vientiane guesthouse owner,is a very nice fishing village with many stalls selling fishes, but when I arrived thee after 45km and at noon,nothing that attracts me for a night stop,so I continued to push further,no towns ahead as shown from the GPS until Thakhek some 200km away,so expected to camp today with some camp foods: sardine,sticky rice,cucumber,4 litre of water and one unusual watermelon which I bought in last minutes. The sun is still shining at the back of me at 4pm,so i continued to ride until i saw a big grassland to set tent.
