Peace be upon you all. On to the 4th day of my first travel for the year 2017. Continuing from Boat ride through the waters of "Kuala Patani".
Sunday 15th January 2017. After visiting a historical well and mosque at Kerisek we left Patani and travelled some 80 km towards the town of Songkhla. There we visited the tomb of a famous Malay religious master. Look at the article Makam (Tomb of) Sheikh Abdul Samad al-Falimbani in the blogspot SENI LAMA MELAYU (MALAY OLDEN ART). There I parted ways with the rest and started my own solo travelling to Songkhla.
At the roadside just outside the path to the tomb a local kindly hitched me up on his motorcycle and sent me to a comfortable public transport stop. From there I got a transport.
I don't know what to call it. Is it a van? Is it a car with long seats like in a bus behind?
What I do know it is a main mood of transport here.
The fare structure...
With it I travelled some 27 km to Songkhla.
I was told the fare is 28 Baht. But having no small change I happily paid 30 Baht to reach its end stop...
