Wed 8th Nov 2006 - KampotAnother early start for our bus to Kampot. The bus seats were as hard as nails, there were no head rests and not enough leg room even for Jen (Cathryn was half sat in the aisle for 4 hours!), but STILL we managed to sleep.Arrived at Kampot and checked into our hostel which was blatantly an old hospital - a minor detail the Lonely Planet forgot to mention! But cheap cheap cheap. We were very proud of ourselves.Had a wander around Kampot to...

Tues 7th Nov 2006 At 6.30 am we got the "local bus, for local people" to Phnom Penh. The aim was to get to Phnom Penh in time to get our connecting bus to Kampot or Sihanoukville. But due to a flat tyre en-route, we completely missed our connection and were stuck in Phnom Penh for another night, after Cathryn saved some lives of tuk-tuk men at the bus station from the wrath of a tired Jen.

Arrived tired and very grumpy so decided to catch up on some much needed sleep. Wed 1st Nov 2006 We went on a tuk-tuk to visit the killing fields. Very rocky road on the way there, but we managed to stop ourselves falling out of the tuk-tuk. Afterwards we went to the S-21 prison and learnt more about Cambodian history. ...

Bangkok Sat 28th Oct - Tues 31st Oct 2006: End of Team ThailandJourney to Bangkok did not start well. Rebecca was sick on the catamaran to the mainland, and Jen was also turning a certain shade of green. All the while Cathryn slept peacefully, but was not happy at missing the end of the Jodie Foster film as the journey was not long enough for the film. Super human Jenny and Cathryn carried Rebecca's rucksack as well as their own down the longest pier in the w...
