The capital, Phnom Pehn, was pretty crazy. It's tough to get around because all the vendors spill out onto the sidewalks and the cars and motorbikes come up onto the sidewalks, so there is nowhere for pedestrians.
Most of the country, however, is very rural and slow. Quite poor actually, and still recovering from years of war.
The beach was a breath of fresh air, and it did not disappoint us.
For a while we just relaxed (Char getting her nails done). The women who worked on the beach, and the Cambodians we met in general, were very nice. We became pretty good friends with several of them.
We made some excursions around the area, snorkeling and such, often from boats.
Snorkeled near here...
Lots of fishing boats and great seafood.
The beach was gorgeous, the water clear and warm, and it was a great change of pace.
Walks on the beach...
...sea life...
...fishing villages...
...more boat journeys...
...fishing villages...
...and friendly locals...
...but mostly we just spent time relaxing, often with new friends.
It wasn't adventurous the way some of our trips had been, but it was fantastic. Eventually we had to leave...
...as tough as that was, and get back to traveling. Sad to say goodbye, but we felt recharged.
