With some time to kill, we've decided to take a couple days on Otress. We're heading to Phnom Penh after. As nice as it is to have some time on the beach and relax, it's a touristy spot so there's not as much culture contact as we'd like. Maybe its because we biked through the roughs of Vietnam where there wasn't anyone within a couple kilometers who spoke English, but non the less Its getting time to move on
We spent a couple days at Paradise beach enjoyed it, but we wanted to relocate. We decided to hike to a uninhabited beach and camp. The full moon was on the 15th. We hiked all day. At about midday while walking across "long beach" we came up to some interesting looking structures. Sure enough, the TV show survivor was being filmed here and they were immunity challenges. We kept waking and came across a small village where the camera crew were staying. It was Bulgarian survivors and the cast aways were staying a couple kilometers away where we planned on camping. We eventually found a spot, and we stayed 2 nights on the beach. Rationed our food and Slept in the sand...We were like true survivors. It was Paradise
Pictures will be uploaded soon
In Kaoh rong now, and my god is it beautiful. We got a bungalow on the beach for 10 dollars a night, and we're loving the super, super hot weather. The island doesn't have any roads, just a big jungle. We're going to go hiking over to see what other beaches we can find tomorrow.
Last day in Angkor, last day in Siem reap. Went back to angkor heritage Centre to explore some more temples. Three days is good, but the full 7 day pass would be better. Taking a night bus to Sihanoukville tonight. Should arrive around 730am, which we then need to find a boat to take us across to the island, Koah rong. Time to settle for a bit.
Another day of exploring the temples of angkor heritage. Met up with our Amsterdam girl, Sophie, from Phong Nha. We're leaving to Koh rong tomorrow!
Spent the day at angkor wat. Blistering sun made it tough since we biked there (bicycles) and then got stranded inside when Lucas chain broke. We eventually made it out. Unbelievable. No words can describe how amazing it was. 2 more full days to explore it.
Train at 1pm to Cambodia. About a 6 hour track ride, then we need to hop on a tuc tuc to get us to the border, then take a 2 and half hour taxi to siem reap.
