After a 45 minute drive from the airport, we arrive right in the middle of it all! The streets are 10 times busier here than in Cambodia. Streets that are the width of a large Europenian car are being walked on, driven through, cycled through, and biked through all at once … with millimeters to spare. It’s impressive. If I was driving I would have been stressed about the damage, but our driver is obviously used to it.

We got out the taxi and were greeted by this. The street was so densely packed with people, the atmosphere was fantastic. Food everywhere, beer everywhere, people everywhere.

Our room

After dumping all our stuff in the room, next on the agenda was dinner. We had a wonder round the streets near our hotel and sat down at one of the many placed that offer food. All the place you can eat or drink at have tiny tables and chairs for you to sit on! We went for Salt & Pepper Chicken (grissle or feet, we are not sure). We tried it, but didnt eat all of it as it was basically like eating cartilidge. Great experience, though.

The hotel room has a laptop in it. Total Good send, as using my mobile all the time is wearing thin. A previous guest was clearly a connaisseur of the adult material, with such a specific search term to get right to it.
