English summary: Ate raw instant noodles again for breakfast. Perfect weather, spent most of morning on dirt tracks next to the main road because they were smoother. Another big 3100m pass that was not expected, afterwards dropped into a beautiful lush valley with clear water stream, horses grazing. Made a mad dash for Narat at 8pm with 60km to go. Didn’t make it, but had fun dodging big potholes in the halflight of the evening. Overcharged for a spot to camp on someone’s land.

Hang in there Rob! You will be out of noodle-land eventually. The pictures, as always, are awesome.
Do the Chineese have noodles for brekfast? What are you drinking? I'm assuming the water is okay to drink? I know I am showing my ignorance here, but hey, I've never been to china, let alone inland China!
