We started a little late today at 9 am and have our breakfast in town.Most of the eating shops still not open,we were looking something like roti canai type of breakfast, not successful nd ended up having fried mee and meat ball carrot soup at an old shop with 30 over years of history,manned by an old couple.From route 3 ,we passed thru a big town Jhusan and then turned into a smaller road 149, some stretch of this small road is gravel on uphill,but no problem for us, eventhough at the steep bend , we had to get down to push over the gravel.Our plan for today is to camp as we had spent more on hotel in Jiji. By 3pm, we saw a nice river with many rocks,and a small road leading to the river,with 3 locals fishing.We waited for a while before setting up our tents on the only flat cement wall.We check with the locals,is it safe to camp here.The reply is ok since now is not the raining season.
