Trying to leave Bangkok

  Bangkok to Chai Nat We solve our mud problem and meet a well-adjusted 14-year-old

   Chai Nat to Phichit Amazing Docking, Elephants in Traffic Circles, and we find the solution to Costa Rica's bike problem.

  Phichit to Nong Khai: Of Hairy Spiders, Rainforests, Mountains and Team Zen (plus: we learn how to clean algae out of our bike bottles).
