We left from the Guest House after we had breakfast and then we went to visit "Prince Chumphon Shrine" before we left Chumphon. When we arrived there, we went inside and paid respect to Prince Chumphon because we believe that he will look after us when we travel.

After that we went to Ranong. It took a long time because the road was windy. So we arrived there late. We went there to visit the hot springs, hot enough to boil an egg. There were a lot of different springs and hot stone seats for making you healthy. We went to sit there, it was very hot. And near the hot spring there was a temple. Inside there were a lot of bathrooms. You can take a bath with hot spring water there. We didn't do it because the weather was very hot. We ate lunch near the temple. I ate chicken fried in chilli paste with fried egg on top. When we finished eating, we went straight to Phuket. I slept in the car for one-two hours.

When we arrived in Phuket, we took a long time again to find a hotel. We stayed in the "Thravorn Hotel". It was ok, not bad. It cost 350 baht per night because it had air-conditioning and bathroom unlike the guest house we stayed before. We stayed there for six nights all together. And that night we went to bed late because we played cards again.
