Having arrived on Friday afternoon the three of us wandered into town and luckily all three wandered back However on the way we found a restaurant that served BBQs which overlooked the river. It was lovely.
They had brought out a camping mattress so that they could sleep on my floor in some comfort, why it was me who ended up on the floor I never quite understood - something to do with the air conditioning in the bedroom!! I had asked them to bring the mattress because there were none in the market.
This morning started with us going to the market to buy material to cover the water butts, joss sticks and a torch. I am pleased to say that we were successful in all three, sadly they also saw rolled up mattress after rolled up mattress- why my beloved sisters kept asking did we have to carry ....... All I could say was that there were none last week - at least I saw none.
We then decided to go to a resort that google said was just outside Chbar Morn. We found a Tuk Tuk, showed the driver the name and the map and off we went. One hour later we were back having seen quite a lot of Cambodian country side and no resort. I know it is out there somewhere but not near Chbar Morn.
This evening we went into the town and chose a cafe beside the river and the night market. Having sat down we were served by a child who looked surprised when we asked for a menu - we had to go over to the table and choose what were going to eat. I chose prawns, salmon fins, mushrooms, beans of some sort and sweet corn. It was all put raw on to our table and then a gas ring arrived ahh BBQ we said. No we were to make our own soup - on the table - it was delicious.
