CAMBODIA!!!!!!!!!!

Well well, so goodbye nam and hello Cambodia home of smiling khmers and substandard vehicles! From crossing the border at and getting our first dose of the quality of Cambodian buses, we said goodbye to airconditioning and hello to spewing passengers, large amounts of dust my friend who for the first 45 minutes (before he decided he better sit with his wife) tried to practice his english by reading my lonely planet to me. Quite funny indeed, good on him for trying haha!

One night in a powerless Phnom Penh and were set off to Sihanoukville! beautiful beaches, lots of crazy french dudes and an even crazier hotelier named Polo. Poor bastard i was calling him Apollo for the first 4 days haha! Activities at this lovely little beach town included lots of reading by the beach, eating fruit, having a boogy at the nightclub next door even though they struggled to play anything half decent and getting bugged by small children to buy fruit, bracelets or PRAWNS. i think i was the only one in our group to walk away with less than 11 prawns each. And im not talking about the food here, these are little threaded things to adorn handbags and zippers etc..... can you see now why i didnt partake in the threaded seafood?
We also went to the movies a couple of times - $1 for an outdoor cinema - great value! Saw narnia - all in english too, although it still had english subtitles too which were a movie in themselves cos i really dont remember Edward finding a bar in Narnia!
