The room in Nibbana resort wasn't so nice to sleep in, but luckily I got some sleep ok. The "breakfast" was an omelette and many pieces of Pating (white bread), a cup of coffee. And that's it. :P At 10 o'clock our driver to Phnom Penh came to pick us up. He was a nice guy, and spoke fairly good English! He also told us stories about the Khmer Rouge times and about Cambodian history and politics (also nowadays). That was actually interesting, 'cause he told also t...

Today we had our own taxi hired to take us to see the Bokor. He came to pick us up at ten. It was about an hours' drive from Kampot to Bokor as now the good, new road is ready. All the places to see are in different locations, so the driver took us from one place to another. An unfortunate thing is the new megacasino, which opened coupla months ago, built by the chinese, who bought very much land from the middle of a narional park! The casino looked sooo awful! E...

My stomach got a bit messed up at night (strangely so, I usually don't get that way), but I think that it had smth to do with us starting to eat Malarone, and that's one of its side effects.. So we didn't dare to go on the group tour to bokor at morning. Also I was sooo tired 'cause not having enough sleep last night, that I needed a nap. The tour would've lasted 6hrs(!) too, so we decided to have our own later. Also, being with at least 10 other people in a grou...

Got here by a private taxi, a Toyota Camry, with a nice driver. It was a bit expensive, but we saved at least 2 hrs and my back, too, which is pretty important. From door to door. The rural Cambodia on the way here looks pretty much the same all around. Oh, and of course, we started to eat malaria pills, which this time did not give any sickness whatsoever, luckily. Settled in at Rikitikitavi, a nice, cozy hotel at the riverside. From the top floor restaurant t...

Slept a bit longer today. Skipped breakfast 'cause of "more interesting things to do". Around 3pm we took a tuktuk to the Killing Fields of Cheung Ek, located about 15km from the city centre. It took about ~40min to get there, but I wouldn't actually recommend hoing there with tuktuk...'cause of the gas pollutiin and dust which comes from the traffic..your lungs won't like it. Taxi would've been better, though a bit more expensive. .... The Killing Fields. Well...
