57 km
I hardly slept at all last night. Had some troubling news from home about a sweet dog friend of mine who has come down with cancer. Maybe I ate something bad too. Anyway in the morning I had diarrhea and did not leave until 0930. Tired all day. Arrived in Nakhon Phanom at 2 o'clock. Checked in at the modest and cheap Grand Hotel and took a good long nap.
In the evening I had dinner at the fanciest hotel by the river. I ordered some prawns with garlic and black pepper. It was so spicy I could hardly eat any of it. My mouth was on fire after a couple of mouthfuls and I ate only the prawns themselves.
The weather has been rather cold for a couple of days. Not around midday of course but chilly in the mornings and at night. Did not feel very well at all.
I had met some other cyclists who had stayed at the fancy riverside hotel. Expensive, large room and very nice balcony over the river. But they could hardly sleep at night because of that dreadful karaoke bar downstairs. That is why I choose the quieter Grand instead.
