Today we left Chau Doc took a boat to Cambodia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were picked up from our hotel by cycle tuktuk to take us to the river where we caught our speed boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a fairly short journey to the border post where we first had to go through the Vietnamese border controls, then back on the boat for 5 minutes and then through the Cambodian border controls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It sounds quick but all in all it took a couple of hours to get through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following this we spent another couple of hours on the boat until we reached Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wasn’t well that day and it was a bit of an ordeal for me, though I think the others quite liked the experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was noticeably hotter when we got onto dry land and we had to drag our luggage up a long pier following a taxi man who had our biggest case – “follow that man Sam” I said! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was lovely to finally reach our first stop, the Blue Corner Hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
