4000 islands. Go Canada go!

645am bus from phnom penh to 4000 islands. We're supposed to arrive at 4pm, which were ok with since the gold medal game starts at 7pm Laos time. Obviously the bus doesn't go to schedule though. We made it to the border, and had to pay 50 dollars for our visas, which really bites. Then we get off the bus, into a small cattle van that takes us to a boat. We get on the little wooden boat and get over to the island just in time for the game. As we search the island hopelessly for a TV, let alone one with the Olympics on, we run into 2 Canadians watching it off their laptop. We Join them, and before we know it there's 7 Canadians huddled around this tiny laptop with hardly any Internet connection drinking beer and cheering on. It's a good day to be Canadian!
