I enjoyed what will hopefully be my last lazy day for a while, watching more TV than I should have. No need to feel too guilty though, because in two days’ time I will probably be wishing I was back in an air-conditioned hotel room. Yep, the decision is made! I leave on Thursday. In the evening I caught up with a girl called Jenny to eat ice cream and swap cycle touring stories. I picked up some nice tips for cycling through South East Asia and feel the excitement building. Can’t wait to be on the open road again!
