Had a day riding about to Take some more Photographs for uploading to Google earth & hence my website. On the way some people were burning the Rice stubble making it impossible to see the road.

My First destination was the Golden Chedi not Far from Kham Chanot but very rarely visited by Tourist or Locals alike. I also wanted to find out what it was called.

Don Tat

Its called Dontaan which as far as i can work out translates to Pagonda on a Hill.I also passed some of the Mysterious green dishes and this time took a photograph so I could ask Tim what they are used for as every village has one.

Apparently they are used to make fertiliser and are provided free by the Government. However I have never seen them in use and Tim informed me at the most they are used only once a year.

Finally I made a detour to call in at plantation number one to see how it was progressing and if it needed weeding ( Which it didn’t) . These Trees are now nearly Seven years old and a good percentage are big enough to tap.

However I want to wait another year and then maybe enough trees on Plantation number 2 will be mature enough as well.
