The day started with a overcast sky and the head wind was very strong therefore our cycling was very slow and hard,by the first break stop we had only done 15 km we were told by the owner of the "pandaran" Hotel that there was a new road from "loung Son" to mui ne that will save about 20 km by the time we got to Mui Ne we still had another 47 Km to mui ne.
The new road passes thru a re- forested area with no houses and no people but it was a very quiet road ,only occasional motor bikes and a few buses but it also had hills to climb, we were really tired by then and we had to push on otherwise when sunset we will be in the middle of nowhere.20 km before Mui ne proper we saw a resort but when we went in it was deserted but still the staff there wanted to charge us 400,000 for a room with 1 single bed and 1 double bed we try to bargain and tell them we are poor tourist on bicycles but still we had to pay the full price, dinner that night was at the resorts restaurant we wanted egg fried rice but they had no eggs..!!!! so we settled for fried veggies on steam rice and a side dish of B-B-Q scallops..that night I was so tired I went to bed early,I rubbed my legs with a lot of the thai boxing oil,,it made it slightly better
