DAY 25 Slim River to Sungkai (Malaysia)



I started late in the morning.


Today, I continued north along Highway 1.


For a while, there were no shops or settlements.


There were only Hindu temples and Islamic cemeteries.


Malaysia is a country where people of various ethnicities and religions coexist.


Cemeteries, temples, and churches are all separated by religion.


Today's distance was 22.7 kilometers. The first bus stop for a rest was 15 kilometers away.


Today was the last day of the Hari Raya holiday, so the southbound lanes were congested.


Tomorrow, it will return to normal.


There was a monkey community, and a large group of monkeys greeted me.


There were dozens of them, and they all looked at me curiously without running away. The baby monkeys were quite cute.


I entered the town of Sungkai just before 1 PM, and finally, there were some shops.


I killed time until hotel check-in, and checked in exactly at 2 PM. 


The stroller is stored in the room on the first floor.


I took a shower, hand-washed the clothes, and hung them to dry indoors.


I wonder when the last time I used the washing machine was?


My right knee is relatively stable. It doesn't hurt when I'm moving, but it starts to hurt if I push myself too hard on downhill slopes.


I seem to be able to manage 20 kilometers or so if I take a rest so often.


The temperature is 34 degrees Celsius again today. It gets hottest around 2 PM.
