Around the Island - 環島 (huán dǎo) - Part 6

In the East Rift valley we mostly rode on small quiet roads. This is on the way to 5th night stop that we spent in a spa hotel equipped with natural hot sources.

When approaching the hot spring hotel, we pass many shops like this. They sell swimsuits.

At first sight this looks like a camping site, but it is not. It is a cemetary.

So sweet. After 6 days and 640 km, you have the right to take a nap when ever you want.
