Sihanoukville

It took over 12 hours to get here from Siem Reap including stops and change overs the bus was OK but had a Ryanair-esque familiarity with the seats so cramped together.

We arrived at Sihanoukville and as we got into the city the storm killed most the towns electricity, as we got off the bus we were bombarded by 50 or so tuk tuk drivers as if we were celebrities going down the red carpet. We arrived at 'The Small Hotel' and what a place this is, it's run by a Swedish and Khmer couple and between themselves and their staff they can't do enough for you, we arrived late and the kitchen was closed so he got the chef up to make us our dinner!

Next day we rented a bike for $4 and drove the island, technically you are not supposed to drive without a Cambodian drivers licence but a few George Washington's I'm told tends to turn a blind eye. Getting used to the right hand side of the road is difficult enough but Sihanoukville haven't got their traffic lights a long time and it's a game of bumper cars at must junctions!

We chilled out at a few beaches as this is what this place is all about!
