Day 1, 60km. Finally we got away from Kamphaeng Phet after 3 hole days of resting, one more than planned because of my fever. We had a really good run today at first, the first 40 km we did 15km/h so that was reallu good. After almost 50km Maria had her first accident, she was cruising down the westside and wips she got stuck in the supersoft pavement and fell. So now we are even, 1-1 in accidents. She was quite lucky because she only got shallow cuts so they will hopefully heal pretty fast.
Day 2, 55km. We were away at 8am and we thought of arriving to Nakhon Sawan at 12 - 13, but because of bad pavement and Marias foot kept on hurting so we wasn´t at the hotel for 15.30. But we don´t have any schedule to skate after so it didn´t bother us. We had to hitchhike for 2km because of roadwork and we had a really hard time to get the driver to pullover so we could start skating again. I think we told him like 20 times what he could stop so we could get of, but eventually he stopped. It is hard when we can´t speak thai and they can´t speak english.
When we got to Nakhon Sawan we found this nice hotel so we are going to stay here for two nights and after that we are skating in hopefully 4 - 5 days down to Bangkok (240km).
