Postby Captain_Slash » 04.03.2010, 20:12

The route 219, 224, 2120, 348, 3486, 348

Total distance 264 km
Image
I took the 219 heading south out of Buri Ram
Image

Image
A few km south of town there is the Huai Talat reservoir either side of the road
Image

Image
I reach hwy 24 and cross over still on the 219
Image
A few km past Ban Kruat I reach the 224 and take a right, a rare piece of greenery here
Image
I take a left for a couple of km to visit the Huai Mek Dam
Image

Image
This small reservoir along this road is completely dry apart from the deep hole in the middle
Image

Image
Back on the 224
Image

Image
At Lahan Sai I take a left onto the 2120 and ride to the 348 at Non Din Daeng
Image
The Rao Su monument is roadside at the south end of Non Din Daeng
Image

Image

Image
The Klong Ma Nao Reservoir shot from the Rao Su monument
Image

Image
Some of the 348s lovely curves
Image

Image
A spectacular accident here
Image
The cargo of crushed bottles is being loaded onto another lorry and theres no swarm of flies unlike the last time I saw an accident like this
Image

Image
I take a right onto the 3486
Image
The surface is very dusty in places but thankfully only for a couple os sections
Image

Image

Image
I take a right and ride three km to the Huai Yang reservoir
Image

Image

Image
Its looks muddy here and its blowing a gale which helps to lower the temperature
Image
The waves are quite large around the overflow and it resembles the ocean more than a lake
Image
Back to the 3486 and some more twisty bits
Image
I reach the 348, turn right onto it and ride to Aranyaprathet
Image
I check in at the Aran Garden Hotel as usual and its still 150 Baht
Image

Image
Inside parking
Image
A Korean style buffet opposite the bus station tonight for 99 Baht
Image

Image

Image
Ice cream included here too
Image
This friendly puppy appears on the next table to me
