After 2 days of camping,the plan for today is to stay in guesthouse in Moung Phin 82km away.Imagine riding under hot sun,with the body sweat being drying up layer by layer,I could see the sweat patches on my black long pant,and also wipe and clean only at campsites,if it wasn't my smelly body,I'd certainly walk away,I guess the Lao people is used to it cos' so far nobody seems to complain when I am mingle with them.There were few guesthouses in Moung Phin when I arrived at 3pm,and this is good for a bargaining power.Usually the first guesthouse i approached got the deal,the asking price is 60k,I sealed it with 50k.The fan-room is big and clean especially the bathroom good for me to shower the bike. Moung Phin is just a small town with 2 rows of shops along the road when I walked around to buy some foods for my dinner.
