Day 48 So today we had a bus ticket for a 9 hour drive to Siem Reap which ended up being a 13 hour ride! We got up early and left at 8am then got to "Sidewalk Hotel" at about 9pm feeling very hungry and tired. We also witnessed the weirdest Cambodian children's tv programme on the bus (a midget cutting up a pig imitating a child demon, who was equally as weird) the Cambodian passengers absolutely loved this programme! Myself and Hannah were unconvinced... Day 4...

Day 47 We got the boat back to Sihanoukville and decided to stay at "New Sea View Villa" for one more night and booked a bus to Siem Reap for the following day. The weather had clouded over so we didn't bother heading to the beach.

Day 43 So today was the day we went to Koh Rong Samloem to find our first beach! We boarded a boat with 3 Cambodian men who took us to the island.

Day 39 We arrive in Sihanoukville after a 6 hour bus journey at our new accommodation "The Small Hotel". We chat to the receptionist about what to do in the area and decide to go the beach the following day as the hotel offers a free ride and also has a bar there. The hotel is situated quite far away from the town and we were both tired from the bus journey so have a relaxed evening with a few Angkor beers. Day 40 The Tuk Tuk was due to pick us up at 9am but a...

Day 36 I hate to be the bearer of bad news as I wanted this blog to be quite upbeat but after one bad day things then got worse....we had booked a flight to Cambodia to the capital - Phnom Penh. The flight took about 1 1/2 hours and they were serving a meal on the plane. Now everyone says that the English are racist, however certain Asians are some of the most racist people we have ever seen and this flight was no different. We were conveniently skipped by the a...
