Day 116 – Koh Rong to Sihanoukville to Siem Reap.


We had to check out by 9am, so we dumped all our bags downstairs and went for breakfast. Once again we went to Cocos. The upstairs is just a big open space looking out over the water, so beautiful. It was a good choice to sit up here undercover as not that long after it started to rain. It made the place feel so much cooler but the sun came back out soon enough. I spent the whole day up there sorting out the last few things for this adventure, choosing to eat lunch up there and just generally relaxing. We got the fast boat back to the mainland at 4pm and walked back to Monkey Republic in the hunt for a shower. 

The entire time on Koh Rong the place we were staying had no water, needless to say we were all desperate to feel a bit cleaner! In luck we found one and by that I mean just the one but we all managed to shower just in time to jump on our overnight ‘hotel bus’ to Siem Reap, which picked us up at 7pm. The bus was laid out with double bed bunk beds, I think that’s the one way I can describe it. I shared with Chrissy of course and we had more room than we thought we were going to have. Chrissy could lay down flat and only just touch the end, so it’s longer than any of the other buses we’ve been on so far. It seems like Cambodians are bigger than Vietnamese, even if it is only a few inches.
