Bad Start.
Yesterday we got on the bus which we booked at our guesthouse from Riem Reap to Phnom Penh. After 5 minuts, we were kicked off the bus, found out that every body was waiting on the sidewalk there trying to get into another bus. No notice or anything we followed the crowd to get on that bus which everyone seem to be busying getting on it. Put our bags away, found the seats(luckily), and even bought some baguetts from the window(yup!)yet, before we even tried to settle down and figure out what was going on, we were kicked off the bus again. "Wrong bus, to Bangkok, not Phnom Penh" somesone shouted to us....so we hurried to dig out our heavy backpack which were burried in the back seat of the bus, and tried to be sane to find out where the hell our bus sbould be....and there someone pointed us, "There's bus to Phnom Penh..." Ok, we bouble comfirmed making sure this time was the right one. We got on, feeling dizzy, and a bit annoyed, settled down, we started to eak out breakfast. And about 10 minutes later, we arrived at an empty space with two buses parked there. Guess what happened this time?? Yeah.....kicked off AGAIN, picked up our bags again, got on the NEW bus and tried so hard to find another seats. Thank god, there, we were finally on the right bus...The bus started to run to Phnom Penh...only an hour and half LATER!
Good End.
The bus finally got here and we were dropped near the riverfrond, which is the pretty much downtown. We found ourselves a pretty sweet guesthouse, which our room has a 5 star look and quality. (You name it!) And, the best part was that when we eventually sat down on the riverside for dinner, a kid vendor (they are everywhere) yelled at my boyfriend: "Hey, Monkey! Buy a book?? Yes, you, monkey..." Ryan, with his beard getting thicker everyday didn't know what to say....Ha ha! Oh, that kid made my day!
