Woke up at around 11am today and had to get ready to check out at 12. We took our bags to the guys room and went to sit with them whilst they had breakfast. They kept changing to talk in Dutch so I think they were saying things about us!
We left them to take a walk into town and met the girls before going to the Blue Pumpkin. I had a quiche and an ice cream sundae which was really sorbet but still was nice. On the way back to the guesthouse Carm and I decided to go to Swensons so that she could get an ice cream and we had heard it was really nice. When we looked at the menu though I couldn't resist…they looked soooo good!! So I had my second ice cream sundae in less than half an hour.
When we had finished them I was pretty full and worn out so we head back to the guesthouse and I crashed out in the guys room. Carm woke me at 5pm to go and get some dinner before we went on the bus. Since we had just eaten I wasn't hungry at all so after trying the Mexican and decided against it we head to The Pizza Compant and found they did take away salad bars. We filled up a huge tub and saved it for later on the bus. It looked so nice!
When we got back we went to the guys room to wait for about half an hour before the bus got there. We had to say goodbye then which was sad but we made it quick and head down at 6.30. Well apparently the minibus had already been and gone according to the tuk tuk driver, even though the girls had been there since 6.15. So they had to send us another tuk tuk and a mini bus. I think they were just trying to make some extra money out of us.
When we got on the bus it turned out to not be a sleeper bus like we thought but instead we had to change to a sleeper bus later. They said they were going to play a film as well but they didn't. We had our salads then which cheered us up but then all the lights went off to we had to eat them with a torch which isn't easy! I slept for most of the time after that.
We got to Phnom Penh to change buses at around 1am. It was then a proper sleeper bus but there weren't enough seats and they were trying to get me to share with the 2 other girls. I moaned at them so eventually they moved the bags so that I could have a bed. I was pretty worried though because they had piled them up right next to me and I was convinced they were going to fall on me whilst I was asleep.
That night I had some weird dreams. First of all I was lying down somewhere and I couldn't move my arms. I then woke up in the same position as in my dream and couldn't move my arms still. That was pretty scary and then I also thought that the bags were people and that there was a black guy gritting his teeth and trying to move a bag. I closed my eyes because it was pretty scary. I then opened them again and thought there was someone kneeling next to me! Weird.
