To |The Beach!

After finishing teaching our computer classes it was great to have some time planned out for some R & R and what better place to do that then at the beach! The trip to the beach was no cake walk. We had to take a 6 hour bus ride back to Phnom Phen, then from there we met some locals who said that they would take us in their van for only 4 dollars each. What they did not tell us was that they would be taking us and 17 of our closest friends in a(converted) 10 passenger mini van. To say the least it was an interesting trip but alas it was not over yet. For once we got to Kampot we then rented a moto for the last leg to the beach where I Oliver had the unfortunate accident of laying down the moto and burning Jason's leg in the process. He says "everyone lays down a bike at least once", that may be true it does not help the fact that he now has a foot long burn in the shape of the exhaust on his leg.

But in the end the trip was worth it for we are staying right on the beach in a Bungalow for only 3 dollars more than what we were paying to stay at the University of Nations. The beach here is beautiful, you can eat a meal for a dollar (mango pancakes are my favorite) and take intermittent dips in the 70 degree ocean waters.

I have posted some pictures of the beach though they do not do it justice.
