A collection of photo's during our bike rides
A typical morning event in Thailand.
School lunches, cooking start's at 0200hrs
Been doing it for 10 years, and seems no one has had food poisoning. 10 baht a serving thats AUD $0.35. Complete healthy meal no french fries, just that it's proberbly cook in PALM OIL.
Snack on a stick!
Fighting bull out for his moring walk, 5 years old.
He's happy no matress required!
School transport
Kho Sang, see the bull ring lower right, and the pink house top left
The pink house easy to find!
High tech paddle! A couple of plastic plates nailed to a piece of timber - it works!
Fresh pork delivery, the driver no where to be seen
Another high tech item, the latest in sat. TV dishes.
Basic Thai fishing craft, - it floats!
Seems to be a replica of the original fortress at the entrance to Songkhla Lake
Straight stretch of road. Someone's got a headache or more for sure.

Collection of Photo's thru to Feb 06.
Watching the rubber flow.
This is where all those's things they make for safe sex starts!
It looked so good it was worth a ______ !
TASTE!
An American couple we meet waiting for the ferry. They had just spent two years in the extreme's of Antartica. So to reward their efforts they wanted some sun shine and warmth. Starting in NZ, Australia, then Bali, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Loas, Cambodia all on push bikes loaded with about 30kg ++ of gear. Not for the faint hearted.
Well used Thai fishing vessel, missed the ferry.
Jodie & Kirk at the blessing temple the fishing boats use as they head out to sea. Notice the copy of a well used Lonely Planet on Kirks front pannier rack.
A side tour thru the fish docks, fresh Snapper at $5 per kilo.
Some more dead fish!
This guy missed the corner and lost his load of dirt!
Yeah, you can't miss our place, it's got a blue roof, purple awnings and painted PINK!
Someone's family pet!
Recently completed canals during the floods!
A serious group of Mountain Bikers.
3 hours and 48.7k's later I came in second last. Numb bum for weeks.
Khun Sai and his trained monkey Jai.
Some serious bamboo, we missed the Elephants that had been used in the forest logging.
Some locals out in the rubber trees.
Yep, the adornment around Owen's neck is a well used tube. The first 6 rides he had 4 punctures. Lower tyre pressures cured that problem.
That's it for now, come back occassionally to check for updates, you never know what you might find!
Until then keep PEDALING!

In the RAIN & Kho Yor Fresh Market!
We had to pull in here, it was a rather heavy down pour. So while waiting I checked out the fresh market
Despite the rain still trading.
Beef stall, check out the lady - well powdered!.
Weighing out the pork. Okay you VEGGIE folks, we will get to the veggie section soon.
Peanuts ready to go!
Packing lunch. The vendors all thought the camera flash was very close Lightning, until they saw me, and then a good laugh.
Is it cold or turning the rice cakes hot.
More packed lunches - talk about some food poisoning waiting to happen!
Another sale.
Ah! the veggie section. The cauli's looked great.
The rain finally let up so we were on our way, when we ran into these guy's camped on the side of the road. Their house had been flooded, so they moved here. The kettle is sitting on a big log they have alight, the tin is to keep the burning log dry and slow the burn rate down. We where offered coffee and chinese donuts, but we declined the offer. They did have good ______
_________ SIGNAGE for their coffee stop.
Till the next Blog - Keep PEDALING!
